Courage

Hello...

I hope that I don't cause any of you to pass out cold, but guess what?  I am actually entering a few challenges!  Yup - true story.  I think it's probably been months since I've entered one.

The challenge at the Bugaboo called out to me this week. I've been eyeing this great digi at the Bugaboo store for a while now, so thought it was a great time to nab it!  I used my Perfect Layers Rulers for my blue mat behind the twine (see my sidebar for details)!  I rarely create without these wonderful tools!

Hope you are having a great week.  Ours is going well, although it is SO quiet now that all of the company has left us.  The baby shower was a huge success, and I will be sharing photos soon.

Hugs and blessings,

Patti J.

Flowers for You...

Happy Wednesday!

It's been a while since I've taken part in a challenge, and I love challenges!

Decided to participate in the "Flowers for You" challenge at Impression Obsession today.

When I checked my I-O drawer, it had very little in the way of flowers, so I improvised with embossed flowers, and the gorgeous bird complete with flower.

Impression Obsession Bird Collage 4 (#E13046), Impression Obsession Joyful Spring (#B5428), Spellbinder's Labels 28 Dies, Cuttlebug Embossing Border, Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Copic Markers, Pearls, Glossy Accents

I stamped the flower several times, and just kept adding layers until it was popped up enough to suit me, and then generously applied some Glossy Accents for a bit of happy shine.  Wow, my pinks match very well here in real life - not so much, on the big screen!
