Loads of Love

First, I would like to thank you for all of your kind words about my new blog design and encouragement regarding my new stamping business. I am always excited to start something new, but I still have butterflies too.

This week one of my friends has a wedding anniversary.  Since this card is for her and her DH, I didn't want this card to be too "girly".  When I ran across my Loads of Love stamp set, I knew it would be the perfect set for an anniversary card.

As you can see I am still in the watercoloring mood.  At first, I wasn't sure how I felt about the image I colored.  When I saw it all come together, I really like how it turned out.

Check out my new watermark.  Emily made that for me, so it would match my blog.  Love it!

Driving by Birthday "Hi!"

I am so glad to be back to my craft room today. I have been sick the last couple days. Have you ever wished you could lay in bed all day and do nothing? Be careful what you wish for...it may happen. I have been laying in bed for the last two days wishing I could be up getting things done. I got to play with my DZ Doodles images today. This one is called Shelby Scooter. Click on the Shelby link and it will take you to all of her Shelby images. They are so cute!
