Good afternoon! I was about to say morning, but boy, that one got away! I have a very simple card that I made for the All That Scraps design team challenge you can read about here. I'm afraid I am not very happy with this sample...I mean, it's cute, but I have to try again. Can I blame the kids? Oh, no, here they come...I can't even get through one post before they are fighting again, sigh. I can't wait until school starts!!!!
So I used one of the new C.C. Designs sets, Bear Hugs...I mean, those bees are irresistable! I guess I was thinking honey, which made me choose yellow and gold, so I just went with it and coordinated the flowers too. I colored the images with Prisma's and oms. The wings are covered with Diamond Glaze after I added sparkle with my Sakura stardust pen. Both bee's are cut out and popped up over the main image. The cs is all from PTI and the dp is Fancy Pants. The flowers are primas with a dot of liquid pearls and the ribbon is from Target. I found it in the bridal section on clearance and it's a perfect match to the PTI cs. I find that I use it a lot...it's a really nice quality too. I drew in the grass with a Sharpie so the flowers weren't just floating. There is some really light stippling too of yellow around the main panel and some green around the bears bottom and the grass.

I also received an award that I want to share with everyone. Curt from Curt's World awarded me with this wonderful and humbling blog award that he created and launched himself! What a gorgeous photograph!! I am so flattered! Check out his blog-he has wonderful creations and photographs! I love his dogs too-just want to give them big hugs!!
Thank you so much Curt-your comments and this inaugural award mean so much to me!
And last but not least, the mail carrier was just here with my new Whipper Snapper stamps...and you know I got the two new Anna Wight Halloween sets! Between these and the PTI Halloween set I got on Saturday I will be buried under ink and paper all week! I am so excited!
Wishing everyone a fabulous day!!
