Thinking of You

Hello friends! I hope you are well! I'm happy to be popping in today. I know it has been longer than anticipated since I stopped in! I'm getting ready to head to CHA tomorrow...so I've been a bit crazy! I'm excited to be going...it is SURE one fun weekend! I'm greatly looking forward to seeing tons of fun friends and enjoying myself tremendously! Anyway, I'll share fun deets when I get home!

Today is the Design Team sketch challenge for GRS. You can go to the blog and see the sketch and what everyone else did with it...I made a slight rotation to the original sketch. Which is why sketches are so great, isn't it!? Just for the basic jist of creative juice...love it!

I used one of the new GRS truffle sets, thinking of you. I colored the stamp with Memento markers and then added some pretties.

Thanks a bundle for stopping by! I'm not sure I'll get a chance to post while I'm away...if I do get the chance I will...I so excited to see the beautiful new product that will make it's way into my hands...oh the fun!!

Take care and I'll see you soon!

Ghostly Greetings...

Good morning friends! I hope you are ready for Friday...I sure am! We have early release on all but 5 Fridays this school year...yes, we only have 5 full Fridays! Today is an early release day...which means all sorts of fun! My husband is taking a couple of our peeps to the Mariners Baseball game tonight...so we are in for a great day!!

I am hosting the sketch challenge over on the GRS blog today! I'd love to have you join along...come on, it's always a bunch of fun! I used the new appetizer set, Ghostly Greetings...you all know how I love it, right!? Well, I sure do! I also used, yes, the Chevron Coverall!

I also used some new ink I just got from Tsukineko! I got a new versamarker--oh, I love that! I colored my spider in with the marker and then embossed it with clear embossing powder, also from Tsukineko. I stamped my Chevron on my card front with Orange Zest ink, and then rounded the corners. I used my new versamark and clear embossing powder for my spider webs on the black cardstock. Then I used black embossing powder on the green circle. It's been a while since I've used embossing powder...and I might be BACK! It is such a great effect!! I added a few little green bling bits, and a bit of twine...

I am excited that this card also fits the bill for the current Simon Says Stamp Challenge, Emboss it!

Thanks a bunch for stopping by today! I appreciate you! Take care and have a great weekend! More GRS, and masculine birthday cards to come!
