I probably should have waited and posted this card on Monday then the sentiment would make more sense. The weather forecast for the weekend calls for rain showers or rain/snow showers so it looks like a staying inside kind of weekend. Definitely need some bright and cheerful colors to take my mind off the gray…
I was stamping with the Bordering on Romance stamp set that is in the Occasions Mini Catalog and wondered if one of the images would fit in the Designer Frames TIEF. Yup, it sure does. This made me think of using this technique and the rest resulted in this card. Sorry it is not a better…
Geez, you would think I had forgotten that I even had a blog! I am sorry to have disappeared for a few days. We had a wonderful weekend. It was a perfect balance of fun and taking care of some business. Today I sat down and got some stamping done for a swap and…
I was preparing for a Card class and wanted to use the Triple Treat Flower stamp in one of the projects. I stamped, punched, and layered a bunch of flowers in one of my favorite color combinations. I cut a piece of DSP from the In Colors Patterns pack, took out a roll of…
