I thought I would share a couple of other things with you on this beautiful Saturday morning. I can't believe we've been getting this much sunshine in Southeast Alaska! It's amazing!!

This card was inspired by an idea I saw in the May Cards magazine. When I was in Arizona I purchased one of the Martha Stewart butterfly punches. I think they are so cute! This is another one of my 'mail friendly' cards.

Oohhhh...and here's some fun, colorful Heather Bailey fabric I purchased from this etsy shop. It was my first time purchasing something through etsy. It was easy and fast! I really really want to create some fabric scrapbook pages. I am looking to buy some unprimed canvas, but I haven't a clue about it or where to purchase. I asked Donna Downey about it, but I'm not sure if she ever saw my question. She's pretty busy! I recently read through her Step-by-step Projects Fabric Scrapbooking book and it's amazing! It was just the inspiration and help I needed to get started. Now I just need to get started.

Ohh I'm so jealous!! you got some Heather Bailey fabric!! haha! I have been drooling over her stuff for a LONG time now! I am yet to be able to get any, but I have wanted to do so many fun things with her bright and cheery fabric! I really like that card too! I know what you mean about "mail friendly" although I recently mailed some that I thought for sure would need extra postage but I guess they didn't.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so glad that you are going to start fabric scrapbooking. I love Donna, but I've never made the plunge myself. Can't wait to see what you do!
ReplyDeleteCute fabric!! Good luck with the pages. You're much braver than I (then again, I think most people could be).
ReplyDeleteI think you stole our sunshine! It's been cool and cloudy here since Tuesday. I'm definately ready for some hot summer sun.
I think a cruise may be in order. Would love to meet you, too.
Great card! I have been trying to make my cards mail friendly too! Love that fabric! Can't wait to see what you do with it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute card, and I love the fabrics! Glad you got a butterfly punch, I LOVE mine!
ReplyDeleteYour fabric is fabulous! I picked up canvas at my local fabric store. I'm not sure if that's the 'right' kind, but I did take Donna's black damask fabric book class and compared the fabrics and they're similar. So, try your local fabric store like, JoAnns or Hancock.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy working with fabric since taking Donna's class and I hope you do too!
