My masterpiece



Today I want to welcome June of https://www.poppyfieldcardcrafts.com/. She dropped in to visit my blog and I hope you will have time to pop in and say hello to her.

I went out to eat  today - well not exactly out to eat. I went through the drive through but that's like going out. I was out! I went to Panda Express and they give you a fortune cookie with your order. Mine is below and I was so excited I had to make my masterpiece.

This is for the new casmixup.blogspot.com/ for June. It is a new format using Mixed Media, Stencils and Watercolor rotating each month. This month is mixed media and we are to use embossed vellum. I used an embossing folder by Darice then embossed the daisy with a stylus. The centers are colored with a Copic marker and the sentiment is Gina K. It's not a real masterpiece but I did make a card so I'm happy and that gave me an incentive. I embossed, used a Copic marker and stamped.






Be kind to one another.
