Do All Things.....

HELLO MY FRIENDS!

It is the 4th of July weekend
and my boy is coming home for 2 weeks

LIFE IS GOOD!

I wanted to share with you

my latest 'TOVER....

I had been working on this project for

UmWowStudio

and had some unused goodies

I just couldn't throw out!

So, I used them to create this card.

I had applied leftover

Perfect Paints Polishing Plaster ~ Cayenne

through UWS ~ Handwriting Stencil

to a card created from 

CCB ~ Kraft Cardstock.

Now the 'TOVERS on my card are....

the paper flower created using

Spellbinder's Oopsy Daisy Die.

I cut the layers from

7Dots Studio ~ Homegrown collection

and a piece of vintage curtain,

....and Petaloo's Paintable Mini Pearl Daisies

which I had colored with diluted

Perfect Paints Polishing Plaster ~ Cayenne.

I stapled on a piece of 

UmWowStudio ~ Hexagon Background

that I had painted black.

When I was manhandling the piece of

CCB ~ Burlap ~ Black

 I saved the fibers I pulled and

used them behind my flower!

For the card background

I splattered on a bit of India Ink

and did a bit of ghost stamping.

The whole inspiration for my card is

the tag from the

7Dots Studio Homegown Collection.

DO ALL THINGS WITH LOVE!!

WISHING EVERYONE A SAFE AND HAPPY

HOLIDAY WEEKEND.....

I know mine will be!

as the basis for my "Fathers Day" card!

I don't know about you.....but I LOVE SKETCHES!

When I am in a time crunch....

it makes the creative process a bit EASIER!

(at least for me!)

What NEW DIES did I use???

Branches Galore

Small Ivy

Large Ivy

I didn't have any vellum as the DARE calls for

so I used Tissuestock with the Branches Galore Die.

Did you notice....I turned the sketch to create a vertical card?!?
