Faux Carved Wood

 Hello, 

Does this look cool?  I was playing around with some embossing techniques.  I have so many cool embossing folders, I want to make the most of it.   I was trying a technique called carved wood.   I did it wrong the first time and my flowers are embossed.  I made a second card where they are all debossed.   I think they both look great.   I'd love t hear what card you like better?

A Plague

Hello friends, 

Unity stamps has done it again.  This little guy is funny.  I love the expression on his face.   He sparked quiet the debate in class.  Is he a cricket? a cockroach? grasshopper?  Well, I couldn't let it go...so we did some googling and he is a grasshopper/locust.  When grasshoppers are in a group we call them locusts.  They famously caused a plague in the Bible.    Anyway,  this guy has had enough and he is organizing his own plague.   Can you relate?

Lucky to Know you

Hello, 

It has been a long time since I've played with the smooshing watercolor technique.  It is so much fun.  We smooshed our papers into Mowed Lawn and Lucky Clover distress ink.  It gives a organic background. I used the new Unity St. Patrick's Day stamps to stamp the shamrocks.    What a happy, fun card!
