After a month away visiting family in Ottawa, I'm settling in at home again. The sun is shining, the weather is warming up, and life is GOOD!
Today the Impression Obsession designers are creating encouragement cards. I used one of the newly released clear sets (CL302 Listen), stamped simply with Versafine Black...LOVE this set! I paired it with an old favourite go-to background stamp designed by Leigh Hannan (F2051 Swirl), stamped and embossed with Top Boss Gold Embossing Powder. I added the little pearl dots with a Viva Pearl Pen.
Please take some time to see the beautiful things created by the other designers! Their links are on my sidebar. We'd love to have you join us...and you have a chance to win twenty five stamping dollars to spend at the Impression Obsession shop! Check right here for details.
The Wee Memories challenge this week is about colour...black with gold is one of my favourite combinations. Over at One Stop Crafts, the challenge is to use spots or dots. This is the bag I used as inspiration from the increasingly popular Etsy Inspired Challenge. The bag is from the XS Baggage shop...FABULOUS girlie things...go see! The Just for Fun challenge is circles...hmmm...wonder if my wee dots qualify. Over at Three Muses, they're looking for Victorian elegance. The Creative Cottage gals want to see some blank space. This is their very last challenge! SOB! City Crafter's theme this week is Cheer Up!
Thanks so much for stopping by today.
