Good Morning!
Today is my day to post on the Belles and Whistles blog.
I have finally got my card for Anki's challenge that
started on Monday! The poor girl is sick of snow so she
choose ANYTHING BUT WINTER!!!! LOL Poor Anki!
Anyways I needed to step up on making some Thank you cards
and decided to use Smile. I think she is perfect for any and
every occasion.
I have used some pretty springy colors just for Anki.
These are papers from Webster's Pages. (Did you see the
peeks for the CHA stuff???? GOrgeous!!!!)
I have colored with distress inks and twinkling h20's.
I have another question for you all (Or I guess I should say
Ya'll now that I live in Texas! LOL)
Anyways do you ever have problems with your inks NOT spreading on
watercolor paper? I had such a tough time the last couple of days.
It was like I wasn't using watercolor paper! And I use the good stuff!!!
That is why I did't do any outline!
Paper ~ Kraft CS, Websters Pages
Stamps ~ B&W Smile, Sentiment ~ PTI
Accessories ~ Gorgeous flowers, lace and pearls ~ WOC, Circle with heart ~ PTI
And of course I have added some distress crackle paint to the edges!! What a surprise huh?
It is really hard to break out of it because now it looks so empty when I
don't use it!! LOL I also found a three pack of stickles for almost nothing so you
will continue to see that more often as well!
Yesterday I got a couple surprises in the mail for an early b-day!!
Thanks so much ~ you know who you are! Since today is a busy day we
celebrated last night. The girls even made some delicious cupcakes!
I am such a lucky girl!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a special day as well!

Just stunning Kathy! I love those flowers with the paper you chose.
Absolutely gorgeous, Kathy! A great challenge...need to use my BnW more so I will try to play along but the week is just zipping along. Hope you have a fab birthday, hun! I don't colour with distress inks anymore as I was never very good at it, but I wonder if you need to use a little more water to get the ink to move around... maybe the Texas heat is soaking it up,smile! Your colouring on this card is as gorgeous, as always!
Have a wonderful day,hun!
Big B-day hugs,t
