A Cool Ride ~ Blended Mountain Technique

After seeing a couple of cards on Pinterest with what appears to

be a blended mountain background technique, 

(none of which included instructions) I decided to try my

hand at incorporating a digital copy of a stamp I had received

along with an inked background card to see what I could 

come up with.  

This is the scanned image that I wanted to use~

I took a blank 5 x 8 index card and my distressing blocks

along with several Stampin Up ink pads and went to work on the background, aiming for the mountains of the west.

Then I carefully ran the index card through the printer, 

printing the wild horses onto the inked card.  

Being from South Carolina, this Cool Ride would be a 

DREAM for most of us, so I added the finishing touches with a bit 

of green twine and a metal plate that says 'DREAM'.

What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday? 351

I'm joining Stamping Ground today with

What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? 351

although mine has spread from my desk to the entire

floor around the room!  For today is a continuation

of yesterday and filling orders from my online

site Not Just Scraps.

My little one person operation keeps me pretty busy 

with preparing new items on Mondays,

posting new items on Tuesdays, and completing the orders 

 on Wednesday & Thursdays.

I'm sure some would laugh at all the little stacks and trays of 

treasured embellishments, stamps and dies. 

This adventure goes way beyond de-stashing a large crafting

inventory.  So many doors have been opened to new and 

special friendships for me.  My God continues to bless me

each and every day with wonderful ladies who share my

love of crafting and making our memories last through 

scrapbooking, card making, photography etc.

And the final step on every package -

A reminder to every person that handles this package...

May your day be richly blessed!

A Special Present to Me!

My birthday was last week and one of the

special presents that I received was

a Heartfelt Creations card making class

from my Daddy!

Well....yes he had a little helper telling

him how much I would like this....

The event was hosted by the The Stamping Place in 

Columbia, SC.  They have a sweet store tucked 

quietly away on the west side of the city ~  well worth 

a stop if you are in this area and only a few 

miles for the airport!

Ready to get started....

with one of my card making sisters, Jennie.

Heartfelt's Instructor, Joel, led the group through making 

two peacock cards and one owl card.  

Each made with layers of embossed 

and inked vellum and completed

with glitter and prills.

The owl was my favorite as the cage and branch

actually attach to the front of the card oval.

Now it's back home to see if we can practice

what we learned.  

Thanks Dad for a great birthday gift!

Hide His Word In My Heart ~ Week 6

This week's scripture is from

1 Corinthians 13 versus 1-8,

a very familiar selection God word 

in which the scripture speaks of Love.

To me personally, I found it very comforting

to just relax and 

read through these versus 

very slowly, 

meditating on each one,

being reminded that yes,

God Love is simply

Unconditional...
