Pretty Bird


Wow, where did the long weekend go? Got some much needed rest, Aly is feeling better and I am more with it since I got a couple of naps..woo hoo!
I had a chance to play most of Monday afternoon, which hello...doesn't that just make any crafty girls day! This is one of the cards I made and it was inspired by Kazan's sketch at 2S4Y. I got all of the yummy paper, rub-ons and chipboard buttons made by Blue Hill as part of my Paper Crafts "Gallery Idol" prize. This line is simply gorgeous and I have been afraid to dig into it. Now that I have, you will probably see more of it soon... baby steps... baby steps. Some times it just hurts cutting into such pretty paper...yes I know I am a dork.


See you tomorrow with my project and new FREE downloadable template for 3D Design Challenge. PLUS find out how you can be "
In The Spotlight"!

oooh One more thing...Chloe has nominated me for another award...geesh peeps how loved am I! Thanks Chloe!

This card is totally gorgeous...I LOVE IT!!! And I'm glad that I'm not the only dork who feels the pain of actually cutting into pretty paper...I have some that I've looked at using so many times and just haven't been able to bring myself to do it ;) So YAY for you!!
