I'm Finally Back...........with something new! Yes, it took a couple of days, but I have been so busy with life I haven't had a chance to update my blog! It's not like me to be MIA for so long. I got to sit down this afternoon and create just to create, wow was that actually a chore - my mind was a blank! I guess because I have had so much going on, my mojo left me for a little while - hee hee, but not to worry, I found it again. :) I also had great difficulty deciding what set to reach for - Delight in Life was calling out to me.......so I went with it. I used my cuttlebug swirl embossing folder on the chocolate chip base of the card and then sponged craft white over the top. I used Chocolate Chip ink to stamp the flowers on Blush Blossom and Cool Caribbean cardstock, cut them out and kissed them with the Linen Background using Close to Cocoa. (I stamped the background using Linen also). My trusty Signo Gel Pen and stickles came in handy on the flowers - they are so sparkly! The ribbon is brown and blush polkadot ribbon from Starlitstudio's ebay store (i love her ribbon!). Everything is up on dimensionals - i just LOVE 3-d! :) I am working on several orders that I have received over the last week or two for card sets, altered lunch tins and I just got an order for 75 wedding shower invites! Keep your eyes peeled! I am hoping to give away some blog candy soon *wink*

Kendra, This is so stunningly beautiful. I absolutely love the linen background stamp on the flowers! I hope to be able to stamp myself this week since I just got my stamp room re-done (new cabinets and counter tops). I'm still trying to reorganize though so it might be awhile yet before I can stamp. In the meantime I'm inspired by your creativity. Ida http://faithartistry.typepad.com

I was blog hopping and came across your's. I feel in love with this card. I had to pop over to SCS to leave you a comment there too! Just signed up on your blog. It is killing me not to play with my stamps as I just moved from Idaho to Hawaii. Half my house is still in boxes and all my stamp stuff is not organized yet. As soon as I am able to stamp I have to "try" to make this card. Love it!
