I'm BAAACK!

Hiya & HAPPY THURSDAY! After what feels like FOREVER, I'm finally back blogging & stamping again! I'm so excited that I have today off; I've been running around like a chicken this last week, prepping for the Duluth Crop-for-a-Cure that I'll be teaching at this coming weekend. I finally have all of my class kits made up, have all supplies and samples packed, and am ready to GIT R DONE! I had a brief moment last Saturday to stamp for fun, and put together these Flourishes cards, using their "Summer on the Patio" stamp set. I LOVE this cute bucket of flowers! I need thank you cards in the worst way!

I also learned a GREAT new trick from friend Carol Halvorson; she taught me to make my photos brighter by using the 'contrast' button on my photo editing software! I think this solves my DARK photo issues! YIPPIE! I now LOVE my Canon camera!

I also recently got a Just-Rite mini round 1 3/16" Luxe stamper kit, and was able to play with it for sentiments. It comes with some really cool flourishy round monograms. I need to make me some MONOGRAM cards soon!

Supplies: Flourishes Summer on the Patio set, Just Rite 1 3/16 round stamper, October Afternoon "Hometown" paper pack, Copic Markers hydrangea blue, golden yellow, pale olive, Ultramarine, Ice Ocean, Putty, Milky White.
