Thursday’s Design by Candice

Great job Robbie on the beautiful background (Michelle Zindorf really does some beautiful cards using that method, my favorite is Lite Up Cowboy). I’ve tried doing this method but have not had much luck, I’ll have to give this another try. I saw this flower on another blog, and thought I would give it a shot. Kudos to the person who came up it, love the dimension it adds to the card. 1. Stamp the…

Wednesday’s Design by Robbie on Thursday

I have been wanting to try the brayered background technique for quite some time. MichelleZindorf creates some beautiful background using this method. When I finished the background I was not happy and thought Yuck! I decided to keep going and see how it turned out. After finishing I somewhat liked the final product. I did find out that I did not do the technique correctly. I was supposed to brayer top to bottom and I…

Color Challenge Monday – Robbie

I cannot remember who picked the colors for this week. When I looked at my colors all I could think of was a western flair. With that in mind I grabbed my Wanted set and got busy. I started out using Lauren’sSaturdaySketch. As my card progressed I could not use the other piece on the left she had included. Knowing that I modified it even more by moving the circular piece to the left and…

Taken UP A Notch

Well here it is the card that I said I was going to juice up a bit. I think this looks so much better with the changes. Thank you Grace for hosting the show today, I think it went really well. Weekends go by so fast, hope everyone had a lovely one. Sloane and I went to the tea room for lunch on Saturday for a girls day out. Her friend Lauren and her mom…
