What Happens When ???

Ya just lose it? This weekend I looked every where for it. I studied the paper on my desk and my supplies. Still nothing! Where did it go?

These past few weeks have been extremely hard from a craft point of view. I felt scrunched for time and always interrupted. I had a great card just moments from completion and the deadline past me by. I guess I'll look for another challenge to put it in.

Although I thought I knew what I was doing for the inspiration challenge at STV. I came up with something totally different. This by the way was my third try of four. No wonder I can't get one card done if I have to do four just to get one and I'm still not happy. I got the paper out for the first try and it just didn't seem like the look I wanted. Second try was a brilliant idea, I will put some variegated foil in my cb folder. Well that stuff should come with a big fat WARNING label. Do not use in cb folders, will crumble, stay in cracks and create one huge mess!!! LOL. After I cleaned up that mess I still had the embossed paper, so I thought a bit, how else can I get those bright colors? I remembered my Twinkle H2O paints (one of those things you just have to have and rarely use)...... so I'm digging and digging found them. Picked out the colors I wanted. Do you know how hard it is to paint with these things on a tiny, tiny raised surface. LOL Then when I finished I didn't like it at all. Some of the colors I used (covered by image and placement of tag) just stood out too much. I turned the folder over and took a paper towel and wiped down the other side with just one color and that didn't show up. So here is the way it is! I really hope to stamp more today we will see where that takes me.

Have a happy day whatever you are doing!
