Text Boxed! Blog Candy & 101st post!



I got my Text Boxed set from Paper Trey....and I have to admit I was a little stumped at how to use it! I know I had seen all kinds of gorgeous cards out there using this set, which is why I was convinced I HAD to have it! When I opened it up I was suddenly at a loss. I'm still not sure I love this card....maybe cuz I'm scrappin so much right now and can't do two things at once! (Geesh, I sound like a man!) Anyway,


I pulled out some Wild Asparagus paper and Creative Imaginations paper. I inked the stamp with old olive, and the little flowers in Bravo Burgandy. I added a scalloped border at the bottom using my Martha Stewart punch. I added some rhinestones to the scallops and flowers. The sentiment is also from Paper Trey. I am on a, cut the sentiment up, kick! I used some sheer organdy ribbon left over from my sister's wedding 3 years ago!



Hey, guess what else? I reached 10, 000 hits AND today is my 101st post! WOW! Can you believe it? I know I never thought a single soul would ever care about the cards I made....and all of you wonderful ladies have proved me wrong! What a great feeling that is! Thanks for all the encouragement and kind words....they really mean a lot! OK, OK, enough of that....what does this mean? What else....BLOG CANDY!!! I will post it tomorrow!!! Did ya notice my new banner? Beth over at Freckled Fun designed it for me! I think she did a great job!

I love this card! The colors are gorgeous and I love the scalloped edge. I didn't get this set because I knew I'd be stumped, even though I like all the cards other people make with it. Oh well, I still haven't played with my Green Thumb yet!

Great job with that set! Love your lined school paper you have been using too! How fun!

I kind of thought the same thing when I saw the new Papertrey set but that's not unusual for me. I'm easily confused. LOL!

Congrats on the hits.

Труд вырабатывает какие-нибудь особенные гормоны, повышающие жизненный импульс. Отец учил меня работать, а не любить работу. Без этого – с работой, которую вы ненавидите, которая сплошная скука, и в которой не нуждается мир – ваша жизнь – ад. Не каждый, пускающий дым в глаза начальству, горит на работе. Труд не есть добродетель, но необходимое условие добродетельной жизни. Если же ты что-то сделал пусть медленно, но хорошо, то быстро все позабудут, что ты работал медленно, зато будут долго вспоминать, что ты сделал это хорошо. Ленивый человек в бесчестном покое сходен с неподвижною болотною водою, которая, кроме смраду и презренных гадин, ничего не производит. Где работа, там и густо, а в ленивом дому - пусто.
