GOOD MORNING my sweet friends! I hope ALL of you crafty Mommy's had an AMAZING weekend! I had the BEST birthday/Mother's day weekend! I wanted to thank those of you for the SUPER SWEET birthday cards AND gift cards I received in the mail! I was pleasantly surprised that so many of you know when my birthday is! I felt EXTRA SPECIAL…..THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart! xoxo
Okay, now onto my 2 projects for today! First up is my card (above) that I made for my homework for day 5 of the "Online Watercolor Class for Card Makers" that I am taking! Okay, I was SUPER EXCITED to get the "Derwent Inktense Color Pencils" for my birthday! In one of the instructional videos, one of the teachers used these for her card! I thought, what PERFECT TIMING for me to get these! ;) So I used these watercolor pencils for my card today. (If you decide to purchase these pencils, I highly suggest using your coupon because they are little bit pricey!) I had picked up this flowery stamp from Michaels a few months ago, but I had filed it away so good, that I could not find it! lol…. LUCKILY when I was looking for something else, I found it! ;) The sentiment is from my "Treasured Moments" stamp set!
Okay, now onto my smash book page! I took this picture of my boys & my hubby at church last month for my niece's baptism. I just LOVE how this pic came out so I HAD TO add it to my smash book! Instead of just adding it straight to my page, I thought it would be fun to use this Brick Stencil that I've been hoarding for some time now! ;) I used silver embossing paste & I was pleased w/it when I was done! I basically just added everything to it & it was all done.
MCT products used:
~ 4x4 Journal die & more (hearts & star dies)
(a few sneak peeks)
Now onto my AMAZING design team! WOW, I was in AWE of everyone's BEAUTIFUL pages today! I even have sweet Miss Nancy here joining us today as a Guest Designer!!! Don't forget to click on each name to visit each blog & leave them some much DESERVED
