Another hot one and muggy too yesterday, but I love it! I did manage to get a lot accomplished at the Stamp, Ink, Paper Store, more that I thought I would which is always nice! We also had a lady that drove all the way in from New Jersey stop by! She said that there aren’t any craft stores left by her anymore. Now that is a dedicated crafter! After the store closed I headed home, no top down today, it was raining. Had dinner with Mum & Dad and then took Taylor and Kiera to Target. Taylor still isn’t allowed to drive, she’s on CodeineĀ for her throat which she says still hurts. I feel bad for her but there isn’t much you can do, she just has to wait for it to heal. Renee is off today, she’s going to PA for a book signing by one of her old high school classmates. That should be fun!
Today I have a just because card! Just because I wanted to use the stamp set! LOL! My card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card stock. For my background I used a piece of Bo Bunny 12×12 Beach Day Surf Shop Paper. All of my images and greeting are from the Hero Arts Color Layering Large Orchid Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped the flowers in Lime Green, White Dye Ink, Ultra Pink and Lemon Yellow. The stems are stamped in Green Hills and I used the Coordinating Frame Cuts to cut them out. They are adhered to the card with Multi-Matte Medium and the flowers with Foam Tape. I stamped the greeting in Onyx Black and then added some Pretty Pink Posh Lime Sorbet, Watermelon and Sand Sequins to give the card a little oomph! I do love the orchids stamped in the green and the way that the White Dye Ink mutes the color! I hope that you like my card for today! Thank you for coming by! Have a simply wonderful Sunday! š
