After taking advantage of Create with Connie & Mary's Occasion Mini Tutorials - I've decided to host an Afternoon Tea in April and create this card along with the Tea Shoppe Explosion Box. Since I'm in the midst of doing that planning, it worked perfectly that today (Create with) Connie & Mary had a sketch as their challenge - so I used it.
I created the background with the Delicate Doilies set with Pool Party ink on Pool Party paper. I'll share the Explosion box later on -
I've been creating all afternoon - 5 cards done for the upcoming All Occasion Stack in May. I am NOT usually this prepared, but because I have a number of in-home workshops coming up, I wanted to be able to show them what stamping opportunities I'm having in my home in the future.
So - busy, busy, busy - Wooo Hooo - Hip hip Horray!
We've had a dump of snow today - on the eve of Spring Break. I'm sure anyone who was going to the mountains to ski is thrilled. My daughter is leaving for Mexico on Sunday - so she can't wait to get out of here!
I'm staying put - and happy to do so.
Hope you are happy with whatever plans are on your calendar - Thanks for stopping by for a visit.
