Hi Everyone
I have been playing in my studio today and wound up working with a new 12X12 piece of embossed paper from Canvas Corp. This floral sheet was a creamy color and was just calling my name so I bought it and looked at it for a few days before I decided what to do with it.

Well I have been working on a project using Pan Pastels so since those were on my desk, I decided to color with those.

Then after the coloring was done, I wanted to use an image that did not compete with the paper, so I decided on a stamped Eiffel Tower image and a tag and a really fluffy bow, all from my stash.

Stamps:  My Sentiments Exactly - Amour Sentiments Paper/Card Stock: Cream CS, White CS, Dk Green CS, Canvas Corp - Embossed  Paper  Ink: Memento - Gray Flannel Accessories: Ribbon, Craft-Dee BowZ  tool, dimensional foam, Pan Pastels

Experience

Hi Everyone,

WOW, four months down. April has flown by and now we are into May. It's the first Tuesday of the month and that means its my turn to post for Craft-Dee BowZ. The designers were given a theme this month -  Spots and Dots. I made a collage image a while back and it was just waiting to be used. I decided to use a purple ribbon then I picked up a polka dot paper pad while I was in Tennessee giving me this beautiful purple polka dot paper. And this collage fit the bill and the card just came together. 

Here is a closer view of my bow.

My Projects for Mema's Crafts for May

May Theme - Anything Goes

Hi Everyone,

It's the beginning of May and that means it time for Mema's Challenge for May. This month sponsor is  I Brake For Stamps.

I decided to use an umbrella image from I Brake for Stamps. And that umbrella made me think of April Showers and then there are the May Flowers so I used some of their darling flowers (Sweetheart Blossom). Then I spied a darling stamp set with birds perched on a sprig that is in bloom. So it all came together.
