Thanks for all the comments Tuesday for the blog hop, just catching up after working all night.  This is a simple thank you card.  I like using the Sahara Sand as a base color for the card, I use it or Crumb Cake for bases some of the time.  I just love all these new embossing folders and just saw the new ones that will be in the fall mini and they are all great.  This stamp set for the saying will get lots of use for the next year.

I am back....God Bless You card

Been fighting a cold and cough for the last month or so and just got really bad the first of July.  I am feeling better and here is the first card to be posted in July....

I have issues using the Designer Series Paper...I love it so that I just save it and don't use it.  This time I cut one sheet of each into 6 x 6 inch pieces to make me use it.  This is the Brights Pattern pack. I also used Crumb Cake for the base card, the DSP pattern paper was Real Red, and Bashful Blue.  Stamp set Crosses of Hope NEW, embossed with gold embossing powder and VersaMark, and Heat tool. Also used  Block D, Real Red brads, Real Red 3/8 in Taffeta Ribbon.

Check back daily as I will be adding blog candy from time to time....Look for more cards in future posts.....all from the new 2010-2011 Idea book and Catalog.

VC Rocks Blog Hop this weekend

I made this card after learning how to make a background paper using chalk, light color paper, ruler and a eraser, a technique that I learned at VC Rocks from Brandy Campbell

You may of came from Shari's site,  www.sharisstamppad.blogspot.com and to continue on you would want to click on Tina's site, www.tinataves.blogspot.com the next hop on the blog hop. At the end of the post you will find the whole list of blog hoppers.

I used a piece of Whisper White, applied two different colors of chalk to the paper with cotton ball, with ruler and eraser remove chalk, spray with hair spray.  After the paper is dry, finish by making your card.  Just two days ago, I made/posted a card I made by using a stretch by PPA.  I happened to be the guest artist this week.

Also used....

Card stock Whisper White, Pink Pirouette

Watercolor paper
