Blessed


Hi there! I was going through some of my "blog ready" pictures and noticed that I hadn't posted this card yet. I created this card a few weeks ago using the Signs of Autumn and Thanks a Million sets from Gina K Designs. I liked this card so well that I ended up making enough of to use for a recent swap as well. I rarely make more than one of anything, so this was a true challenge for me! On this card I went over each of the wheat stalks with my Versamark Marker and then clear embossing powder. The deets for the card are below.

Although I make cards, I am kind of a schmuck when it comes to actually sending them to people, but I did send this one to Theresa as she had done something really nice and I wanted her to know how much what she had done was appreciated by so many of us who hang out on the StampTV forum. Stampers really are the most kind hearted folks! I can't begin to tell you about all of the "special" friends I have made through this little hobby of mine.

The weather here is gray and gloomy and as much as I like fall, I don't like gray and gloomy. YUK! I have some cards ready to take pics of, I just haven't had good sunshine to do it in. What do you all do to get good pics when there is no sunshine?

Enough rambling, here's the recipie for the card:

Stamps: Signs of Autumn, Thanks A Million-GKD
Cardstock: Brown, Cream-GKD, Yellow Mini Gingham-Amuse
Ink: Caramel (or maybe Butterscotch??) and Espresso Adirondack
The extras: Ribbon-GKD, Weed (Outta the Yard), Versamark Marker, Clear EP, EK Success Medium Corner Rounder

happy stamping,
