Purple

Purple is not one of my favorite colors. Its hard for me to craft with and I tend to avoid its use... so today I chose to step out of the box and focus on it. Purple was my theme. I made a cute anniversary card using a new Studio G floral stamp, triplicated it, and mounted on a shimmery textured purple cardstock. I love how it turned out, and I think that after today, I *might* dislike purple a little less :)

I (Heart) Kraft!

There is something awesome about kraft paper. I don't know what it is, but I just love that stuff! My new favorite is kraft from Paper Trey Ink!

I've been in a bit of a work induced crafting slump lately. Two projects and overtime tend to cut into the crafty-mojo :( Today I took some time for me (wow, such a foreign concept anymore! lol) and made a card with a bit of a vintage touch that can be used for either a wedding or anniversary... something lovey dovey given the quote on the front :)
