quick post
yeah, i know i've been a bad blogger. I am trying to get over the guilt LOL. I just decided when i got a minute I'd jump on here and post a card. I've been busy with work and trying to make some valentine's (the yearly rakarama is coming up you know) and get back to scrapbooking - which had gone by the wayside entirely over the last year pretty much. More on that another day. But I did make a birthday card for my friend Michele. Yes, all the stamps are from Purple Onion Designs (naturellement!). I'd been wanting to use the damask background stamp since I'd gotten it - and stamping it on a paper bag might seem odd but I liked the look. I used a little scrap of Basic Grey and some purple cardstock and stitched it all on my machine. Oh and I colored the hand using some prismacolor pencils. So there you have it. We had some snow yesterday - advertised as a dusting but it ended up being a few inches. We did some fast shoveling this morning and got some shopping done afterward so this afternoon I'm thinking I'll try and work on the aforementioned scrapbooking. Have a wonderful Sunday!

So fun, I love the stamping on the paper bag :)
Oh YAY! A post!!! LOVE the card, and I bet Michele did as well. You are so good at keeping on top of birthdays!! Love that pretty damask background and the coolio hand. Excited to hear you are doing valentines again too...You always make the most amazing little gifts of love!!
What a lovely card! Your layering of items are always so eye-catching. I wish I was creative in the way you are!
Well I think that stamping it on a paper bag is just perfect. What a gorgeous card. I love the colors.
Nice work and yeah a post. (I am a fine one to talk huh?)
