great cape escape...

so maybe i've mentioned before that i {love} mixed media mondays.  it's a great escape every week. well, tracy found this cape one day. and it turned into the great cape escape which involves a cape, a journal, and traveling around the country.  it is awesome!  the cape and journal found its way to me last week.  and it couldn't have come on a better day.  thank you, tracy, for this amazing jourey!!

hello...

i haven't posted a card for a while. and i can play along with friends with flair this week! i have loved this huge poppy stamp since the first time i saw it on the unity website.  but i didn't get it because i had no idea what i would do with it.  i finally gave in and got it.  i made a set of cards like this one in four different colors. so simple!

uphill...

this was kind of an uphill battle for me!  i loved what sandee from frosted designs did and thought i would try it out.  little did i know i actually had pipettes to work with!  the technique was a little frustrating for me but i did like the finished project.  it's fun experimenting (and a little aggravating!) with new techniques to see what you do and don't like! thanks for the push, again!!
