Morning All,
As I write this I am a month ahead of The Sisterhood challenge...
yes, you heard me right, it is cool, raining and a great day to be in my
crafty room playing "catch up or get ahead" as the case may be.
I made this card for our new challenge at "The Sisterhood" being hosted by "Terri".
The challenge is "Thank-ful".
I spent forever trying to find what the heck I did with this stamp set from Flourishes.
It was in the most illogical place (not) in with all my Fall and Halloween stamps
that I keep separately ... now why didn't I think of that sooner!!
Plus, the fact, that once I finally did locate the stamp I wanted,
I used a different one from the set then I had originally intended...lol
I stamped my image on watercolor paper,
cutting it out with a favorite Spellbinders Die Exquisite Circles
and since lately my goal has been
cutting it out with a favorite Spellbinders Die Exquisite Circles
and since lately my goal has been
to use some of my much neglected things that I "just had to have"....
and then they sit untouched forever, (I am sure you know how that is)
I pulled out my TH Distress markers and went to town water coloring my image!
The paper is from doodlebug design "happy harvest", that I bought last year.
The ribbon I bought this fall, I am trying to buy ribbon that is mostly double sided
as it seems to work better for me.
I do encourage you to "pop" on over to "The Sisterhood" and see what my talented "Sistahs"
and our "Guest Designers" have to inspire you this week...
and while there, why not join in the challenge with us...
we would love to see "your" project there!

Gorgeous card! I love that image and the way you watercolored it! And I can completely relate to thing things that "you just have to have but forget to use", all too well I am afraid!! Thanks for playing along with us at Scrapy Land Challenge #5!!
Such beautiful artwork! Rich colors and wonderful images. Sometimes I peruse my craft room and discover all new things. I now open my Autumn drawer regularly, and go through my Christmas section often, to try to remember what I own LOL

Wow! This is beautiful, Diane, and your watercoloring is outstanding! I think you should do more of it 'cause you're super good at it. This is such a gorgeous set and one I do not have, not that I'm hurting for stamp sets. I can so relate to your stamping supplies situation. I keep trying and trying to use up what I have, but it's the paper that gets to me. Sheesh!
