Tourists



I just love this stamp, made by Eat Cake Graphics. I imagined this as a postcard these folks were sending out from their vacation to....Coney Island?? Hehe. The sentiment came from Hambo Stamps. Monica included it (and several others) with my order, FOR FREE! Thanks, Monica! You ROCK!)

Dang Computer!


I have been having serious computer "issues" this past week, so I haven't posted in a while. I don't know why it randomly decided to let me on this morning, as I don't think I did anything to fix it, but keep your fingers crossed that it will last a bit longer!

This week's Sassy Challenge was to make a card using the Dahlia Fold featured on SCS a couple of months ago (you can find the tutorial here). I knew right away that I was going to have to use my Ginger Blossom paper. I may never do this again, as it was a lot of work, but I do like the way it turned out!



Stamps: none
Paper: Ginger Blossom DSP, Groovy Guava, River Rock, Regal Rose
Ink: none
Accessories: brad, CM circle cutting system, Nestabilities, Cuttlebug die cuts
Techniques: dahlia fold
