You're Never Too Old...

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

Although utterly adorable, last month's new arrival themed NDC Groovi plate from Clarity proved to be a little challenging when it came to planning my latest Creative Crew Craft Along on Facebook!  But, given this year's craziness, and with it everyone's need to slow things down into manageable pieces, I soon came up with this design...


Card: Unbranded white, and Clarity's clear parchment and Rainbow River DP
Groovi Plates: July's NDC, Nested Scallop Squares, Nested Scallop Circles, Large Net, and Universal Framer (alphabet)
Tools and embellishments: Groovi and Pergamano embossing, perforating, and cutting tools, Perga Liner pencils, Perga Color pens, blending oil and nibs, Perga glue, silver gel pen, and rhinestones from my stash

Challenges...
NBUS #17 at NBUS (the NDC plate qualifies)
AG at TTCRD
#122 AG at A Bit More Time To Craft

I'll be back soon with another creation, so I hope you'll join me then,

Paris with King Charles

Hi everyone,

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!

The card I'm sharing today, created for a client, features the first stamping I've done since starting Groovi in November 2018!  It features the 2nd element of Clarity's City of Paris - three way overlay stamp and Josie's King Charles duet grid, hence the post title.  My client asked that the image be colored, but left said color and indeed frame up to me, but we're both very happy with the result...


Perhaps unsurprisingly after so long away from ink, it took EIGHT attempts... not all on parchment... to get to the final image with a brand new ink pad, but it was well worth it!

Card: Unbranded white, and Clarity's clear and teal parchment
Groovi Plates: King Charles duet
Tools and embellishments: Groovi and Pergamano embossing, perforating, and cutting tools, City of Paris 3 way overlay stamp, Ranger archival black ink, Perga color pens, and Pergamano brads

Challenges...
August AG at 613 Avenue Create
AG at TTCRD
NBUS #17 at NBUS (stamp and ink are NBUS)

I'll be back soon with another creation, so I hope you'll join me then,
