Another Black & White Card

I thought I would try another card for today's SCS Limited Supply challenge. I used the new Printed Window Sheets for the background design and the saying is from the Matchbox Messages stamp set - both available for purchase on April 1st. The card was a little hard to take a picture of because the window sheets are very reflective. Laying it on a blue blanket worked the best. The new window sheets are interesting and looked like etched glass. I love the Organza Whisper White Ribbon, it is so sheer and elegant! Thanks for stopping by - have a great weekend!

I have to admit that I do like how this card turned out for today's SCS Sketch Challenge, and you know how I love to cut things out! I used 2 sets that I just got - Wonderful Watercolors and Matchbox Messages (from the Occasions Mini), and watercolored the flowers in using Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery and So Saffon.

Don't Faint - Another Post!!

That makes 2 in one day! I made this card for the SCS Weekend Sketch and used the new Scallop Oval Punch that is available to order April 1st. It fits inside the large oval punch perfectly. I thought I would try using Perfect Plum and Pale Plum for this challenge; colors that I haven't pulled out for awhile. I sponged the edges with Perfect Plum.

Sorry about not posting any projects lately. Richard has been in the hospital since the end of February and I haven't had a whole of time to do much of anything! The good news is that he might come on Wednesday. Long/short story - he had an imflammation in his lower intestines that eventually led to a small hole, and he had to have emergency surgery.

I am still planning on having my stamp camp on Sunday, March 22nd at 2:00 p.m., and we will be using products from the new Spring Mini!
