Hey There!

Good afternoon/evening friends! I hope you are doing well! We've only got one sick child in the house and I'm getting excited that we might be rid of the nasty virus! I've been so amazed at how long I feel we've had sickness in our house...SO unusual!! I'm hoping that we're almost done...here's to hoping!

I've got something fun to share today! I've been thinking about using my Silhouette to cut some flowers, I have a beautiful 3-d bloom in my library and I wanted to finally use it! While my little Max was sleeping and Ruby was happy watching her barbie movie in her bed(her sickness hasn't slowed her down hardly at all, so I was happy she would lay down and watch for a little while!), I sat down to make one of these beautiful blooms!
I cut the bloom out of some crate paper...isn't it a delicious flower!? I love the silhouette and am so excited to learn how to use it more! I added a bit of lace--isn't that lace stamp awesome!? It is from the new Timeless Textures stamp set from LAD. I stamped it in Raspberry Fizz ink onto the Summer Sunrise paper. My sentiment stamp is from the Perfect Phrases stamp set, also from LAD.
I've come to the conclusion that I've got to get to work on my "studio" again...is it the fact that the sun is shining? I've been having the urge to vacuum under the beds, clean out drawers, and now my studio space is driving me crazy! I'm looking for new furniture--maybe some office furniture? But I'm not sure exactly what I want yet! What is your favorite thing about your work space?
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a great one!!

I'm totally into 3-D flowers right now, too. I just ordered the Fun Flowers die for my Big Shot and I have a bunch of flower punches already. Love the paper you used to make yours!
