Jan's Digital Stamps Mid-month post

It's half way through August already- it's hard to believe!  It is so hot and humid here, we have been staying inside and trying to keep cool! What better way to keep cool than to create with a sweet crafty friend : )

 For the Mid-month of the challenge over at Jan's Digital Stamps, we get to create with her newest images.  



This fun set is called Crafty Friends (and it is on sale now)!
Jan's sets come pre-colored and in a black and white format as well.  I used the Pre-colored image here and die cut it, added DP, some banners and popped up a sentiment using foam tape.  The sequins add a little bling but should not affect the postage!
  My favorite wine is red wine : )  

The Challenges at Jan's are monthly- stop by and join your card in the Anything Goes challenge!

Challenges: TBA

Thanks for stopping by!

We have been having some family activities that are slowing down my ability to create.....  SO, posting some cards I was able to create this weekend : )  


The Teapot Tuesday exchange to each other was to think back of a fond memory- I have a zillion allergies, so don't do alot of gardening....  but, my Mother was a master gardener, and both of my sisters are as well!  Their yards and flowers are beautiful.  My husband does our flowers and gardening : )  
 I had to have this Spellbinders die set, and was on the waiting list for a bit before I finally got it.  It has many pieces, but I love it and all of the designing possibilities!  
 The sentiment is by Simon Says Stamps. 

  

This background technique is called retiform, and is a variation of the new technique posted at Splitcoaststampers.  I used Distress Inks.  Images are by SSS, aka Simon Says Stamps. 

Thanks for stopping by, hope you are well and crafting : )
