Home Sweet Home

Good evening friends.  How is everyone tonight?  I hope you had a wonderful Wednesday.  It's been quiet around here tonight.  My daughter has been at her grandma's since 2pm so I have been able to get quite alot accomplished.  Mostly cards, but a load or two of laundry and dishes were done too. :)

I have a card for y'all tonight that uses as image from Shelly's Images.  I used my Chromatix pens from American Crafts to color this one after printing it out on Neenah card stock.  I'm almost out...gotta order some.  Can't live without it.

I know it's kind of hard to see, but the swirly lines that you see are actually an acetate frame from K and Co.  It's been in my hoard stash for about a year.  One of the challenges I made this card for challenges us to use a specialty paper.  I don't really have alot of that, but I thought I would pull out one of theses frames to use.   It has beautiful purple glitter flowers in the left corner and glitter swirlies all around the frame.  I matted the frame on a piece of yellow card stock from Colorbok and a piece of DP from DCWV.  I then ran that through my Cuttlebug with a rectangle die.  I used pop dots and adhered the whole frame over the image.  I matted the whole thing on a piece of the DP from DCWV and a light blue card stock base from Colorbok.  For a final touch, I added a glittered chipboard bird from K and Co. to the bottom left corner.  I didn't think it needed any more embellishing.

Thanks for stopping by tonight to see what I have been up to.  God bless y'all.
