Yellow Lace

I won some wonderful blog candy recently from Mary H at Carolina Cards. The embossing folder I'm using, GooseBumpz Lace (set of 2), and the stamped flower, Stampabilities/Floral Silhouette2,  are part of the goodies she sent me. Thank you so much, Mary.

I did a Ways to Use It challenge, WT519, on Splitcoaststampers this morning. The challenge was to use buttons and lace, faux or real. My lace is faux, using my lace embossing folder. I ran my Tim Holtz Distress Paint in wild honey over it before running it through my Cuttlebug. I love the way it turned out. I am using the white buttons for the centers of the flowers.

I added a sentiment from Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps/Welcome Poppies set.

I cut out the flower and sponged some blue for the sky behind the flower. The frame is a Spellbinders Card Creator A-2 Matting Basics A and I popped it up with mounting tape.

It is so cold here. The deep south should never be this cold. Brrrrrrrrrr   It was supposed to be 8 degrees last night..don't know if it fell that far or not. It is 17 degrees right now. I hate winter!!!!

Picnic Time



CCEE1322

For the last challenge of the month at CCEE Stampers, Shirley gave the theme--It's A Picnic.
We could have certainly had a picnic around here for the last several days. We had a beautiful Memorial Day weekend and it continues with plenty of warm temps and sunshine. I'm loving it.
I've gotten a lot of yard work completed.

Not much to say about this one. I colored my digital image with Copics, stamped and cut out a little bee, and added my sentiment on Martha Stewart tags.

We hope you're in the mood for a picnic and will link your card using our inlinkz tool this week.
