It was a busy week for me with activities every morning and every afternoon. Pretty much wore me out but I am pleased that I got through it and feel so good. Lots of rain and storms for today so a great day to stay in the craft room. I do need to get my hair cut or I won't be able to see through my bangs.

This is a birthday card for my former Stampin Up demo. We had lunch Wednesday and she came to visit. She still works full time but had three days off so we had a nice visit. It is a Hero Arts stamp and a Color Burst background. I added a few sequins and the sentiment is from Mint Owl. I stamped the tree on white card stock and on the Color Burst background. Then I cut out a panel from the white card stock and using foam tape, popped up the white panel. I don't know if you can tell that in the picture but it had dimension. Be kind to one another.

This is another lovely silhouette card Brenda, the blue panel is gorgeous, and yes I can see the dimension with the white layer popped up. Have a great weekend, Cathy x

I've always loved that HA stamp & what a beautiful Color Burst background, Brenda! I need to get mine out & see what I can do with them--you've inspired me! Glad you made it through the week & hope you get to enjoy a day of crafting--that's my plan today!

You got a very subtle look to the lovely brusho background, and the rounded edges look so pretty with this black flower silhouette. Love this CAS design...it's beautiful and elegant. Hope the storms don't do any damage & that you get some rest from the being out of the house. TFS & Have a great Sunday. Hugs

I love your color burst background. The colors are really lovely as is the silhouette. It's a very pretty card. It sounds like you have been staying busy. I am hoping for a nice sunny day. I'm so tired of the rain and it's supposed to get cold again Monday.. Take care!

Fantastic CAS design. Awesome colors for the background which was perfect for the silhouette image you chose. Adding the sequins really made it awesome!

Such a gorgeous background in those beautiful blue hues, Brenda ... the silhouette really pops against it ... the dimension is most definitely visible from here! Anita :)
