Ir's been awhile since I've submitted cards to Stampington for a template challenge so tonight I sat down with some of my Asian stamps and played a bit. The background was created using plastic wrap and pearl glimmer paint. The pictures really don't do these cards justice as they have a subtle glimmer from the paints.
I was excited to see my card in the current issue of Somerset Studio Gallery, Summer 2011. I'd like to congratulate my friends Lynn Stevens and Nancy Maxwell James as they have pieces in this issue as well.
It's that time of year again....as soon as the thermometer hits 90 degrees I start thinking of Fall. My Halloween Blog is now up and running...I hope you'll stop by for a spell:
I was thrilled to see 10 of my cards/tags in this year's Catch Up Issue. Here are a few of the pieces:
I'd also like to congratulate my friends, Wendy Robinson, Lynn Stevens, Louise Granlund Deb Corder and Ali Manning as they all have work published in this issue as well!
