I know, I know

I apologize for the sweet followers who have returned here to see the directions for the Sweet Treats I posted during the amazing blog tour. It was a blast and I hope you riders had as much fun as I did participating. I am getting ready to go to Salt Lake City for the Stampin' Up! Convention. This will be my first convention and I am so excited. A lot to get done. So, if yall will give me a break, I promise to get the directions posted as soon as I can. In the meantime, here is a card I absolutely love! I hope you like it too. Karen, think of this with Crimson or that pink color you like so much!

This card is made using the Movers and Shapers die for the Big Shot. Also the front of the card was embossed with the Big Shot texture plate Harlequin.

Cardstock: Basic Black, Whisper White and Bashful Blue.

Ink: Bashful Blue and black classic ink.

Stamp sets: Baroque Motif and Lovely Letters

Embellishments: the curly label punch and white organza ribbon

A set of these would make a great gift. Do you know how soon Christmas will be here. Better start gettin' ready! Now, thanks for your time and be blessed, but more importantly be a blessing to someone else.

Big Day for this Momma

Good Morning! We started the day early after a late night, DH and I went with some friends to see the ASF production of West Side Story. It was really good and a fun evening with good friends. This morning though at 6am our baby, Lee, ( 18 yrs. old) left for the airport in Atlanta to fly to D.C. by herself. Yes, this Momma bear is a little anxious. She is growing up and I am very proud of her. She will be spending the week with her Aunt Kathie and Uncle Gordon; she is also visiting North Virginia Community College! Okay enough family life, let's talk stamping. Yesterday's SCS Color Combo Challenge was Elegant Teal Olives- that's right Elegant Eggplant ,Taken with Teal and Old Olive. It was a challenge for me as the only Teal I thought I had was a marker. I did find some scraps of Teal in my old scrap box. I tried several things before this card emerged. I love this Baroque Motifs set. I think it came out great. Hope you like it. Babies are napping so I'm off to stamp.
