Let's Celebrate


Happy Thursday!  Have you all seen Taheerah's Cure for the Monday Blues challenge?  This is my first time playing along.  I loved the colors in the graphic for this week. I used the sketch from My Favorite Things.


I am sure you can tell exactly how I was inspired.  :)


My second card was created using the masking technique Jennifer McGuire shared on Day 3 of Online Card Class: Clean & Simple 3.  I had to use distress inks on the background to cover up some fingerprints.  OOPS!!  Not sure I love the blue background but I am sharing anyway. 

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!  I will be back a little later with another post, stay tuned!!!

  7. I LOVE that doily card - the blue background is great! Isn't it funny that there is always somebody who really like a card that one personally is not so happy with? I always show all my cards (for that reason) unless its really abysmal...
