Hello my friends! Long time no see… actually, I’ve been creating lots in the past few days, I just can’t share all of it with you yet! Making things is hard enough these days, posting to my blog is a whole other thing… but I’m trying to figure it all out!
Also, before too long, I *will* have reveal pictures of our bathroom renovation. I was half-way through photographing the end results when my battery quit, and haven’t managed to pick up where I left off. We dove head first into our second bathroom, so I’ve been busy working at that one now. I tell you, it’s going to be an exhausting year, but I am determined to have our top floor finished by Christmas. Wish me luck!
Can you believe I managed to create something for this month’s PTI Blog Hop? Me neither… but they called for embroidery inspired floral stamping… how could I resist?
Truthfully, I wanted to create a much more intricate background like I usually love to stamp, but I’m feeling a bit rusty and decided to simplify.
Also, even though it’s more modern than my usual style, I’ve been liking the off-set panel trend that’s so popular right now. So why not go for it?
Kind of fun, right? Out of my box anyway… plus I got to stamp, which I miss so much.
So that’s what I have for you today – it’s modest, but it’s something! I’ll post my Festive Friday card sometime over the weekend too… so a few things to share at least!
Thanks for popping by, friends!
