Hi Friends,

I am loving this Monday, it is cool here and the kids are starting back to school not all the schools in the area but it should start getting quiet around here. This past weekend was the Monterey Concours d'elegance,  so Highway 1 was a parking lot.


Anyway one thing about being a paperholic is -- it is hard to throw things away that look like they might be useful. Last week I used a cover plate to make my fiber paste card the smile one.  This week I am using the leftovers or the negative pieces.  I will do a bunch more, because I have a lot of these swirly pieces left and I really like the way my card turned out.



Aren't the swirly pieces pretty.  They make me happy.



Here are my pieces tucked away in an envelope,




PTI stampers select, winter wisteria ink, ruby reprise for flowers and sentiment
