April Hostess Club Swaps

These are the cards from my Hostess Club Swap. I have one more but the picture needs to be cropped before I can add it to this blog.

This card was made by Robin Rusmiselle.

April Workshops - Tile & Crackle

I absolutely love, love, love this tile technique! I have seen lots of samples of it and just had to feature it, along with crackled embossing, in my April workshops. The set is from the Spring Mini Catalog. Finally, a masculine card I really like!

My hostess, Robin Rusmiselle, was kind enough to scan the cards from our workshop Friday night. Here is the card she made:

This is the second card we made at the workshop on Friday. The image was triple embossed with ultra-thick clear embossing powder, then cracked.
Robin also scanned in the cards we swapped on Friday. I'll post them tomorrow.

Fallon

I haven't been stamping much lately because two of our dogs escaped from the house. One came home but Fallon has been missing for 2 1/2 weeks. She was last seen near the Mission Inn.

From the Garden

I love this hostess set. It is a nice big flower that can be used in so many ways. I'm having a love affair with ribbons, too. I try to add a spool of ribbon to every one of my orders. The ribbon here is Caramel Plaid.

It's been awhile!

I was working all kinds of crazy hours in preparation of my vacation and then the vacation was cancelled at the last minute. I am finally stamping again (though I admit I made this card last month). This was one of my workshop projects for March. I just love the Summer Picnic Designer Paper and it goes so well with the Tart & Tangy set. You can' t read the words, but it says "Sweeter than Apple Pie" from the One Smart Cookie set.
