Instead of catching an extra hour of sleep with the start of Daylight Savings Time, I used my extra hour to craft. The first thing I did was to tear apart the card I made yesterday for the Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge #166. I just did not like it! This is what I finally created for the challenge.
Yes, that is a paint strip from the hardware store. I'd like to paint my front door and shutters that dark green color. |
The close up of the turkey shows the gold glimmer mist sprayed on it. |
This turkey is my favorite CTMH Thanksgiving stamp.

My great-granddaughter paid me a visit yesterday. Unfortunately, I did not have the foresight to clean off the kitchen table, where my laptop sits, before her arrival.

Adorable cards, especially the one for Beccy's challenge.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards Debi, I love them both! The colours in the first one are fabulous and the gold glimmer mist on the turkey adds some great shimmer and shine.
ReplyDeleteThe little fox stamp on the second one is adorable and you did a great job colouring it in. I like the background embossing and the little sentiment stamp too.
Your great-granddaughter is a cutie Debi... it sure doesn't take them long to figure out what the tech is all about!
Cheers,
Beccy
