What a beautiful, sunny week we have had. It has been wonderful to be outside and warm. Molly has been in and out all day long. I haven't spent much time in my craft room but I did make one card. I tinted some embossing paste with Distress Ink and put over a stencil for my focal point. The hugs stamp from Lawn Fawn was stamped in VersaMark and embossed with Ranger gold embossing powder. The little butterfly is a Poppy Stamp die from a bit of gold paper in my stash. I stamped, used embossing paste and used a die cut so I am entering this is in the CAS Mix Up Challenge and Addicted to Stamps. I am also popping over to http://pixiescraftyworkshop.blogspot.com/ challenge with my bit of gold paper. Be kind to one another.

What a wonderful CAS card, Brenda,Love the pink and the sweet hugs in gold with that sweet little butterfly! I made it home and happy to be at my own computer. I was finding it difficult to signing in and out of my blog on Linda's computer, so didn't do very much visiting or even posting! I made 17 cards, but only posted a couple. If we forget to sign out, then we make comments and it gets posted as the other person...just easier to wait until I get home. I usually bring my tablet, but it broke and we had to send it out to gt it fixed! I checked through all your days I missed, wonderful cards, friend!!
