Sneak Peek - Moonlight Work of Art
05 May 2014
Hi Everyone.
Happy Monday. Hope you are all having a great start to your week.
I have another set of sneak peeks to share with you tonight. The new Work of Art stamp set - love it! With my favorite Moonlight DSP - and my favorite - all time ever - In Color - Blackberry Bliss. Then, for those of you visiting my site because you like the wildlife pics - I have a couple of those for you, too!
I saw this great sketch across at cleanandsimplestamping.
Once I saw the sketch, I knew it would be a great sketch to showcase some of the new DSP. I purchased three lots of DSP in the pre-order - Moonlight, Maritime and Lullaby. My favorite - Moonlight.... because I'm totally in love with the two new In Colors - Lost Lagoon and Blackberry Bliss. The Moonlight DSP features the In Colors and some fabulous designs.
We get the Work of Art set as our present for attending the catalog pre-order party. Great night, by the way! We got it in wood and, as I don't buy wood stamps any more, I spent an hour yesterday converting it to clear and changing out the packaging. It was so worth it.
Anyway, on to the card:
I still have no idea why typepad is bringing in my photos and making them look as though they are out of focus. I promise you, the photo is in focus! Don't you just love this color, though!!!!? I do. It looks fabulous with Hello Honey. Not my favorite In Color - it looks like a dirty, more grey, version of Crushed Curry. But.. it does work well with Blackberry Bliss.
The background DSP and the vertical DSP are both from the Moonlight pack. The horizontal sentiment layer is Hello Honey and I stamped it with four different stamps from the Work of Art set.
- the waves
- the heart
- "just for"
- "you"
On a personal note:
Today was gorgeous. It got to the high 50s... not quite the 90s that Colleen has been experiencing! But warm enough that I could take a little break every hour or so and go spend a couple of minutes on the deck enjoying the warmth of the sun on my face and looking out at the wetland, which is starting to turn a little green!
I captured a couple of shots for you:
Isn't that a cool shot? It was only when I uploaded it that I noticed the Mallard flapping his wings in the background!
Proving the power of camoflauge....... these two guys were pretty hard to spot!
Now.... when I was sitting in a conference call I saw a bright flash.... look who is back! This photo is out of focus... sorry, I was rushing to get the shot before I had to talk on the phone!
Once my call was over, I rushed out to the garage, got out the oriole feeder and filled it with jelly and oranges. Hopefully he'll stick around. It is wonderful to see them back!
As always, thank you to all of you for your visits - and your comments. Warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
