Writing News

   Just want to let you guys know that I have a story coming out in the Jan/Feb issue of Angels on Earth magazine. I'm really excited about the story. I'll remind you when it gets closer to time for it to come out.

   Also, I will have one of my cards in the May/June issue of Paper Crafts magazine. I can't show it to you yet. I'll get to post it once the magazine is out. Again, I'll remind you when the time gets closer.

   Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and find many things in your life to be thankful for.

Fashionable Stamping Challenge

  Coffee, cream and chocolate is the theme of  Challenge 7 on Fashional Stamping's blog. We had to use these colors in a card that includes stamping.  Here is my take and the link to the challenge if you want to play along.



   I used a large dogwood stamp from Anna Griffin and created the background with it using Versamark's watermark pad. The small dogwood stamp is from TPC Studio. I heat embossed the small images with ColorBox's copper pigment and clear embossing powder. Then I mounted them with mounting tape. I added a bit of broze shimmer ribbon behind the brown bow and strung some matching beads.
   Now here's the link if you want to make one for the challenge.
