Pincess Time


I have the cutest granddaughters -- They all love to be princesses -- and they all are. Here is a princess card for today's challenge -- CAS -- Clean and Simple. This was easy to do, but, no card is ever "not time consuming" for me. The next 8 will be easy and fast.

Brayer with Michelle Zindorf







I am sitting in the Mexican restaurant here in Grinnell with my honey -- He is reading from his Kindle and I'm looking at blogs about cards. Yes, he did miss me while I was in MO at a workshop with Michelle Zindorf. I certainly became better with the brayer. Actually, learning how to really USE the brayer.

Here are a few of the projects. More later.

Brayer










I have been playing with using the Brayer to make cards. I will post the ones I have done here so you can see my "before" cards. BEFORE WHAT? you might ask. Before I go to a workshop by Michele Zindorf. For those of you who don't know, Michele is from Ohio. She is the "EXPERT" in using the Brayer to make cards. She travels all over the US giving workshops. She is going to be in Columbus. MO this weekend. So about 5 months ago, I paid the big bucks to go. I've been looking forward to this and now it is here. I will be spending the rest of the week practicing. (Thank goodness my HONEY is going fishing this week.)

Michele sends us tutorials every week. She uses Stampin UP stamps, so I am able to duplicate them. It will be fun when I can successfully design my own. Here are the ones I have done so far.
