which, at the time, i said i thought would be *perfect* for ATC's...which i was longing to make. well, i was right...they ARE perfect for making ATC's! see?!
(stamps: crafty secrets; bling: michaels, k&co, heidi swapp; sprayed inks: glimmer mist, smoosh spritz & grumbacher watercolor paint; ink pads: colorbox, ranger, staz-on; rub-ons: basic grey; tiny metal frame: k&co (i outright stole this idea--framing a teeny embellishment--from gina); flowers: prima; brad: making memories; transparency: staples; adhesives: uhu gluestick, tombow mono runner, mini gluedots; everything else is vintage goodies from my stash: sheet music, text paper, bits of paper & fabric lace, random images, postage stamps, tickets, and my new favorite thing: bits of vintage sewing pattern (which came wrapped around my gauche alchemy goodies!) glued slightly wonkily over some collage bits and under others--i ♥LOVE♥ that the tissue paper is sheer enough to see through and yet it gives INSTANT texture and patina to whatever is underneath it!)

ReplyDeleteCongrats on Fab 5 again!
!! Not a surprise in the least. You should be on their DT team. :)
Two weeks in a row. I bet not many do that!!!
I changed my blog some more to try to fix it. I went on my dad's laptop and it did what yours said it did. So I'm hoping I fixed it. Will you look and report? No one else said anything, but you obviously aren't the only one.
TIA.
Thank you for the ton' o notes today. I love them. I miss when you don't note. :)
