The gloomy Tuesday morning turned into a nice day around 1:00PM! I can deal with that! I did get a few things around the house completed in the morning and then I took my MacBook and sat outside in the afternoon! I do love a little sit outside! In the evening I went over to Jim’s for some dinner and more furniture refinishing! We are working on some chairs and an end table. Pictures when we are done of course! 😀
And we are at Wednesday so time for this week’s Paper Craft Crew challenge…
A card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock starts off today’s card. I used the Concord & 9th Globe Greetings Photopolymer Stamp Set to heat emboss the world onto a piece of Soft Sky with Hero Arts Copper Embossing Powder. The Coordinating Dies are used to cut it out. I also die cut a banner with the Concord & 9th Best Banners Dies from a piece of Black 110lb. The world is from the same stamp set and is heat embossed onto another piece of Black 110lb with Hero Arts White Embossing Powder. Before I adhered the globe to the card base with Fun Foam and E-Z Runner I added a piece of Copper Washi Tape. The world’s is adhered to the globe with 3D Foam Squares and the best with Multi-Purpose Spray Adhesive. A little cascade of Pretty Pink Posh Copper Sequins and the card is done! I love the world’s best greeting, could be anything! I hope that you like my Design Team card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge! Thank you for stopping by! Make sure and come back at 11:00! I will have my post for this month’s Where Creativity Meets Concord & 9th challenge! In the mean time enjoy your morning! 🙂

Hi Justin:
I just love that copper embossing powder! I’m so glad I got it from you. It’s become my “go to” for embossing. I have found that there are a lot more ways to use this type stamp set then one would think. I have a set with a globe and I use the solid circle stamp for a sun, a beach ball and several other things. I do need to take a lesson from you and use more sequins in my cards. Your use of them always seems to be the perfect embellishment.
Yesterday turned into a really fun day. We met friends from CT in Freeport and had a fabulous lunch at the Muddy Rudder restaurant. I’m meeting a friend for lunch today and then tomorrow Toni-Lynn and her hubs will be arriving for a few days. I must admit this has been a very busy summer. Reminds me of the first summer we were here in Maine and had company every weekend except one from Memorial Day to 2 weeks past Labor day and that weekend we had a commitment ourselves so we weren’t here. I’m loving it. You have yourself a Wicked good Wednesday my friend. Love and hugs to you! XXOO 🙂
