(SSD017)

It rained here today, and instead of stamping while both the babies were napping, I just sat staring outside watching the rain.  I just love the sound of the rain.  Everyone else is praying for sunshine right now, but I really enjoyed the change of pace with rain here in the desert today!  Spring is here already!

Anyway, I apologize for my lateness in posting!  I can't believe it is Tuesday already again!  YIKES!!!  Today I played with a soon to be released set by Skipping Stones Design called Baby Feet.  As you all know, I have been working on cards to thank some of my friends, and today is another one.  I really like how this one turned out, so I think I might just make a bunch of multiples of it and send them off.  Ooh, and I only cheated on the sketch once *YAY!* -- I used a circle as my main focal point instead of an oval!  Hope Jami will forgive me *lol*  Isn't that gemstones cardstock just so glittery and to die for too!  *squeals*

As always, I hope you will take some time to visit the other Skipping Stones design team girls and see what they have been creating!  We all love your visits and comments, so if you see something you like, be sure to tell.  Thank you again to our awesome sketch designer this month - JAMI BOVA!!!  *applause*

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus). Stamps : For the Soul (Hanna Stamps), "God Bless" sentiment by American Art Stamp Paper: Lily Kate - Basic Grey, Neenah Solar White, SU vellum card stock, SU Whisper White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine Accessories : Sheer 5/8th Inch organdy ribbon, Nestabilities (Circle and scalloped circle), sewing machine, white thread, circle of plastic canvas, copic markers, white brads, paper piercing ...
