MY DAY

Today was my day (ok, middle of the night!!) to stamp something I like! How I made this card: I took a Fabriano Medioevalis 3-3/8" x 5-1/4" reply card (from Cindy at Starlitstudio), slapped Palette Noir ink (from Ellen Hutson) on Impression Obsession Floral Damask clear stamps, and stamped, holding my breath that I wouldn't ruin another one of these precious cards. Naturally, I made a mistake on one of the images (can you see which one??) but fixed it with an SU Black marker, because TODAY WAS MY DAY TO STAMP SOMETHING I LIKE. I colored in these gorgeous images with Stampin Up Only Orange and Ballet Blue markers. It was looking mighty fine, but needed a little something -- I wrapped some Stampin Up Bluebird ribbon around the card, stamped another piece, colored it in and put it under the ribbon, popped up on SU dimensionals -- wasn't that a brilliant idea???? Took the picture and realized the ribbon was crooked. Then, the genius that is me remembered my Amuse Twinkle sticky shiny things, again from Miss Ellen, and added some mini blue dots on some of the images for that added bling. Sometimes I amaze myself (not)!! *************** To answer a question -- I got the Damask Floral Impression Obsession set at a local AC Moore and used one of that store's 40% off coupon (yes!!).
