be in the now


hello friends, I have my sights set on 2018; the new year! I luv fresh starts, the hope of things to come and adventures! Today's quote is super fun, I hope to stay curious in the coming year, what fun we shall have if we do! I have sued a new papertrey ink stamp set to me, I did not make christmas cards with it, but could not wait to pull it out when I saw the papertrey ink inspiration photo. I luv, luv, luv making heart cards...they are my all time favorite to create and they are not just for valentines days quite the contrary. I used a faux watercolor technique; stamping then spritzing. Discovered this during the scs fallidays and I luv using it. Also, used the atlantic hearts sketch...hope you have a week full of creating...I plan on it(along with some hard chore painting I need to continue working on, progress pictures to come on my IG)

words with meaning -  blessed are the curious for they shall have adventures.

  1. That's a clever use of the Holiday Greens. I wouldn't have thought to do that. It turned out rather nice!
