Thinking of you....

Good morning!  What a beautiful morning it is in Missouri!

Today is going to be another short post.  I think I mentioned that I'm doing two workshops for a Women's Wellness Weekend at a YMCA about an hour from here on Saturday.  Well, you know what that means!  My craft corner would scare the socks right off of you!  I'm busy cutting and scoring and packaging kits.  LOTS of kits!  Tee hee....

Anyway, back to business here!  I took my friend Shirley some lunch last week, when she was too sick to get out.  Lo and behold, she had the above project ready for us to create after lunch.  Shirley is an A muse demonstrator, so it's always fun to visit and look at her fabulous new 'stuff'!!!  Edited:  I think this technique is in this month's Technique Junkie....   This technique was shown on an Amuse video.  We used four colors of ink, and some small finger daubers.  The leaves were stamped normally, by pressing the stamp into the green ink.  The butterfly, however, was inked using the daubers.  We daubed the yellow first, then the red, then the brown, and stamped.  Isn't that a beautiful way of shading an image?

There is an inspiration photo at Flutterby Wednesday today, that I think captures the colors in this card beautifully, so I'm entering this card in their challenge!

Hope that you all have a delightful day - back to the grindstone for me!  DH has some more surgery at 11:30, so can't waste any time!

Thanks for stopping by to say hello!  I don't know about the rest of you, but Blogger's newest form of word verification is kicking my butt.  Sometimes it takes me 5 or 6 tries to read the words and retype them.  If I'm in a hurry to get someplace, I may have to just stop trying.  That is happening a lot.  If you are noticing a decline in your comments and visitors, it may be worthwhile to complain to Blogger!  Just sayin.....

Take care, friends!
Blessings,
