cream & gold

Playing along with Color Hues #3 - gold and cream.  I was inspired by this card from the CAS guru Jen. One thing I realized with this card is that gold is really hard to photograph!  LOL.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my Canadian friends - a little strange this year! A bunch of my family were together last year and this year we'll be having a Zoom get together on Sunday - family from BC to Ontario.  Looking forward to it!

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Happy Thursday crafty friends! Over at Seize the Birthday we are fluttering around with butterflies. I love it when I have an idea and it works out exactly as I expected. That's what happened with this card - I knew what I wanted for a layout and it just worked.  Alas, things don't always work out quite so well - like when my mojo failed me last week.

Be sure to flutter on over to the blog to give Su, our Surprise Party Guest, and the rest of the design team some love for their butterfly beauties.

Wishing you a terrific Thursday and have a wonderful upcoming weekend. Thanks for stopping by.

Fluttering by...

Happy Thursday! Hope life is treating you well crafty friends. I'm looking forward to our upcoming long weekend (Canada Day tomorrow) ... took an extra day off on Monday to relax a little bit longer.

The Seize the Birthday topping/option this week is 'bees, birds or butterflies'.... but it's always an option and birthday is really the only 'must'.  Having fun with sponges and stencil again this week.  One thing I did on this card that is a bit of a 'trick'.... I coloured my pearls with Copics.  I didn't have yellow or pink pearls so grabbed my markers and added some colour to some white pearls. 

Hope you can play along this week!  All the details are on the blog. Give some love to the rest of the DT - they have created some beautiful cards using our favourite winged creatures.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend,
Glenda
