Anything Goes

This is the title of  Darnell's Ideas motivational for the fourth week. I made this card 
 for a sweet friend by using pattern paper and a Kat Scrappiness cover plate. The greeting is Simon Says embossed in SU copper embossing powder. The flowers on the paper are copper, I don't know why they look so gold in the picture.

My housekeeping style can best be described by "there appears to have been a struggle in here".




Be kind to one another.

This is glorious, Brenda! Whether copper or gold, with the black, it is so elegant! I thought you had embossed it, but I just read the post again and see - is THAT pp??? Who makes it? What a great way to make a QACAS stunner! I think I just bought a similar cover plate at the Cobblestone store in Portland. Love the one-liner!

Thank you for playing with me and my I.D.E.A.S. this week!📌 Hugs, Darnell

Hi Brenda,
what a fantastic luxurious design card.
I love all the elements used to create this.
Your Joke today reminds me of when all the sheds in my road were burgled for gardening equipment the police didn't understand why ours hadn't been touched till I showed them the shed it was such a mess that they must have looked at it and said it would take too much time to get to everything.
So there is something for being untidy in ones shed.
Very lucky as my hubbies fi8shing gear was in it too.
Lots of crafty love and hugs from my house to yours. Jenny L.
