Good Morning Friends,

The roofers arrived at 7:15!!!  They are not as noisy as I anticipated. GOOD NEWS!!

My Mondays are usually peaceful and quiet.  Monday is the day of the week I normally keep to myself and rejuvenate for the week.


The flowers are embossed with white embossing powder and then I colored each one with PTI Kraft, canyon clay and winter wisteria. I used a cuddle bug folder for the embossed background (I have no idea which one)on stampers select white. the flowers are placed on PTI lavender moon with ribbon from my stash. The stamps and the sentiment are from beautiful blooms. I used brads from my stash for the centers of the flowers. All this is on top of an A2 card base of enchanted evening.



I stamped the leaves with PTI ripe avocado on heavy vellum and then I fussy cut them out

 I absolutely love how this card came out, although my fingers are ripe avocado.  The ink smears on the vellum. Next time, I will give it a day to dry before fussy cutting.

Have a blessed day everyone,
Diana
