The weekend is almost here. Are you excited? My youngest daughter is coming home before she moves to San Francisco. We will be spending lots of play time next week as I don’t know when I will see her again. My card today was inspired by some flowers I saw on Maria’s blog. She used designer paper but I decided to see if I could recreate it. She also made roses but I wanted mine…
I got some time to play yesterday. I am still trying to adjust back to east coast time but I am getting there. For today’s card I used the color challenge at Picture Perfect Creations.

It was a real challenge to incorporate…

Round the edges of your sentiment and cut out…

It is a goal I set for myself as I knew it would help me improve my skills. I had tried several times but was not chosen. Well my luck changed last night. It was…
There was a challenge at the Hand Stamped Sentiments blog which was a technique challenge. You were to use the Faux Metal technique. Basically you put Versmark on your cardstock and add either gold or silver embossing powder, heat your paper and while the melted powder is still hot, you pour on more embossing powder and heat again. You do this at least 3 times and when you have heated your last layer you ink…
