Hi Everyone, 



I was so thrilled this am when My computer started. I shut it down last night forgetting that I was going to leave it on. So I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Don't you just love my Bee - I think I have finally conquered cutting stamped images with my dies. I have watched so many videos over and over and I am very pleased with how this came out!!
I went to Michael's last weekend and had a paper shopping spree all their paper was on sale and I bought more--- eeks!!!! I think I should open up my own physical paper store. I don't know what it is with paper, but I am sure, I am not the only one. 

Do you have a paper addiction?
How many pads of paper do you have right now?




 I used recollections Valentines 2016 pad,  I love it. My bee and stamp set are from Verve "The Buzz" I used copics RV011 to color the bee and hive, then I inked it with CTMH eggplant


I am playing along with the MOJO Monday Challenge here is the sketch




Here is my card from yesterday.  I am on a Valentine roll this week.

  6. Diana - your card is so very pretty! LOVE the bee - you did a fabulous job!!! And when you ask about Paper pads - are you asking about the 12 x 12? or the 6x6? or the ... NEVER MIND! LOL Yup- you could say I have a paper addiction! LOL I do plan on getting rid of a bunch of it very soon - I can't just keep paper because its pretty - I mean - I can! :) But it's just not getting used and I'm sure some crafty people out there can use it more - so I'll be cutting my stash down soon - :) Have a great weekend!

  19. I love your cards :) Especially the bee one, the design is fabulous, and your technique is WOW!! I completely understand you with the paper....I just tell people that it falls into my basket....don't know how it happens, but I don't have the time to walk all the way back to the paper section to put it back, and I don't want to make more work for the staff by just leaving it anywhere....sooooo.....gotta buy it :) Thanks for sharing this with us at Creative Fingers this time!
