Wow!!!

This is my 250th post..... I never thought I would be doing this blog for so long or even coming up with so many projects. I have really enjoy this being my creative outlet and sharing all my many things with you.... Now on to my project for today....




After seeing so many different cards on other bloggers sites using score marks for making faux tile or even framing your main image I had to try it with this card...
I loved my main image in this too... The new set Embrace Life is quickly becoming one of my favorite new sets. I'm also placing my first order out of the new catty on Tuesday ... you really should check out my list...

Spring Song
A Light Unto My path

My Tease is revealed.....

So what do you think.... I ended up using so iridescent ice ep on the book mark... And I just love this new Stampin up set Embrace life.

This is card has a keepsake for the person who gets it... a lovely bookmark. Now I have to get to work on the other eleven of these.... but before I can do that I have Choir practice so I will be back latter tonight with the rest of the story for this card....


Well I made it back late and had to help my 10 year old finish his science project that was due today... hope he does well. Now back to my card... I see some have enjoyed it already. I had fun making it and the new SU catty inspired my color combo... I love the new catty look. And Ups delivered my new stamp set that I wanted to use on it just in time yesterday to get this cardfront done.... Some of this card was inspired by one of my favorite designers...Debbie Olsen. When I say her use of the Embrace Life Stamp set I knew I had to have that set in my collection. I so hope to one day be as great as her....


I saw the roses and knew what a great bookmark they would make... well now it is time to see what I can do today besides finish my housework and finish these swap cards.... hope you have a great day....
