Shroom Room

This was my card for a local card swap where we each tried a technique that was new to us.  I used my scor-pal to make the grid lines and then stamped the image. The idea came from a technique book published by Cornish Heritage Farms.

Stuck on Crafty Secrets

This weeks Crafty Secrets Challenge was to use Stickers on your card.  The main image is from Crafty Secrets "Feel Better" Sticker sheet.  The little rain drops are Cloud 9 Rain Dots Epoxy Stickers- I have been shamefully been hoarding for years.
A craft tip - if the Stickles Glitter Glue on your card doesn't dry in 12 hours - it may be an indicator that you  use to much (one guess as to how I know that).

Hey Sunshine .......

This is my card for the Penny Black Saturday challenge Week 116 "Summer Lovin". 

This card kept changing as I went along.  For awhile I thought I had ruined it with too many changes.  I could not start all over because I only had one of this fun image to play with. Fortunately I ran across the paper doily and the card finally came together.
Lots of embellishment bits and pieces were used: Flower Soft, Flower Stemins, May Arts leaves, Martha Stewart Glittery Butterfly, Hodgepodge Hardware.

Two Penny Black Challenges in One

This card is for two different Penny Black Challenges.  The first is a "Feeling Fruity" challenge on the Penny Black Saturday Challenge Blog.  The second challenge was for "Glitter & Glitz" on the Penny Black at Allsorts Blog.

The cute Penny Black Image - Cherries Jubilee Mice was a little gift from a fellow crafter.
