Just a quick Update- :)

Hello My Crafty Friends,

   My how time flies! It's been almost a month since my last post and since I last spent any considerable time in my craft room. As some of you know my husband and I are foster parents. About a month ago the placement we had were placed with other family members and the next day a new placement came to live with us. If any of you have  ever been foster parents than you know how hard, sad , and exciting all of this can be. This last month has been filled with tears, excitement, stress, and happiness...and lets not forget the many, many appointments!! 

We have all now settled into our daily lives and routines so now I get to have fun in my craft room this week. :) I will be putting up a new card tomorrow!! So excited to be able to catch up on blog stalking and being inspired to create .  

Hope you enjoyed the update and have a great day!!

CTMH Rose Birthday Card

Hello Crafty Friends,

Today's card is being entered in to Mojo Mondays 437 Challenge

I recently won Some blog candy from Evelyn over at My little craft blog and one of the things she sent me was was this super sweet stamp set from CTMH: Word Card Puzzle. I really love that this stamp set has so many words that you can mix and match together to create your own sentiments.

 This set also comes with this beautiful rose stamp. I heat embossed the rose 3 times with clear pearl embossing powder, Cut out 3 layers, and mounted them on foam tape. The sentiment is 4 individual stamps placed together to make this sentiment.  

Here is a side view so you can better see the great dimension it adds.
