With Heartfelt Thanks

Last Tuesday was Jacksonbelle Embellishment’s first DT challenge. We were to use pink, green, and basic gray. Since I was up to my elbows in 25th Wedding Anniversary events - and then a broken hot water pipe under the house….. I’m quite late on getting this posted. Nonetheless, I really like this color combo - even more I love, love, love this Inkadinkado stamp called “Lovely Flowers” and sentiment. I used Kaitlyn Collection pattern paper from Crate Paper. The image was stamped with VersaMark, embossed with black detail and then colored with watercolor brush and reinkers. A little black velvet ribbon tied on the bottom and some Robin Nest Dew Drops finished the project.
Enjoy and Create, Lila

It’s a Beautiful Day….

So many reasons to be grateful. Yesterday was Scott & my official 25th Wedding Anniversary - we’re having the big celebration this Saturday with family and close friends. Tonight Courtney (our oldest daughter) and Jon (her significant other) will be flying in to join our celebration.

I’m also grateful for - the sun will be shining today - still early Spring temperatures - but hey - it’s not snowing here in the valley. Today is also my “Friday” at my paid job and will have the next few days off. Oh!!! and a little announcement - Lindsey has made her selection - I’ll be joining her team. I met Lindsey several years ago in Salt Lake City during a SU convention - there was a Splitcoaststampers Shoebox swap that both she & I attended. We’ve kept in touch over the years and she recently moved from Sandy, Utah to Star, Idaho - which is a neighboring community to Kuna. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting her again in person - she really is one of the most talented papercrafters, business owners, and sweetest people you could know - plus she’s a big fan of Willie!!! Now, I like Willie, but not as much as Lindsey,

Enough of the yip-yap - Here are samples using some of the best rubber (IMO) out there - Inkadinkado!! Of course they are paired with BasicGrey or Cosmo Cricket (other bests IMO) and use VersaMagic ink. Pretty straight forward.
