 Hi Crafting Friend, Did you miss me? I hope you did, but even if you didn't, I'm back. I needed a little break so I decided to skip out on my blog for a couple of weeks.  The inspiration for this card is on the bottom of page 22 of the Annual Catalog. It is the second sketch from the right side in the bottom row of sketches. Be warned if you intend to duplicate this card, there is a LOT of fussy cutting.  The card base is Pecan Pie cardstock cut to 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored, burnished and folded on the long side at 4 1/4"   The insert is Very Vanilla cut to 4" X 5 1/4" and the tomatoes in the bottom right corner were fussy cut from one of the prints in the To Market 12" X 12"   DSP  paper pack. Everything was adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (AKA Green Glue or Tombo) unless otherwise noted. The DSP layer is 4" X 5 1/4" cut from the wood print in the DSP paper pack. I ran the edge in the Pecan Pie Classic Stampin' Pad, but its

Well, at the beginning of the week my computer informed me that the internet needed to be restarted for updates so I restarted it and didn't give it a second thought. A couple of days later when I sat down to write this blog post, MY COLLECTIONS WERE GONE! I lost more links and shortcuts than I can even remember and I'm really irritated about it. I have to figure out how I'm going to keep track of  stuff now. I need to do it in a way that can't just disappear on me again. Do you have any ideas? If you do, please tell me in the comments. Ok, I'm done ranting, thanks for letting me vent.  Here's this week's card. You can find th

Hi Crafting Friend, Today's card was made working from a sketch that I found a couple of years ago. The card base is Mist Moonlight cut to 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored, folded and burnished at 4 1/4" on the long side. The insert (not shown) is Basic White cut to 4" X 5 1/4" and adhered inside the card. The DSP  layer is 2" X 5 1/4" Cut a piece of  ribbon 6" long and adhere the ends behind the DSP on the right edge then adhere it to your card front. The Boho Blue layer is embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder, then cut to 2" X 5 1/4" and adhered to the card front butted up against the DSP/ribbon.
