Hi Everyone:  I hope you are having a fantastic Sunday.  I am, even got some things done that I have been putting off.  Yesterday, I had all three of my grandchildren for the afternoon…they had fun and so did I.  There was a high level of energy and of course the usual “he said, she said” thing.  All in all it was a grand day (no pun intended).

If you look on either of the side bars, you will notice that Stampin’ Up! is having 2 promotions.  The first one is the Spring is Blooming promotion and you will be able to purchase the stamp and the designer papers once you have a minimum of $25 (not including tax and shipping).  You could also earn these for “FREE” if you have a $460 workshop.  Click on either of the two pictures (or both…just not at the same time..) to get all the details of the promotions.  The second promotion is a GRAB BAG…loaded with goodies.  The prices for these Grab Bags are $6.00, $12.00, and $18.00.  Get one, or two, or 3 before they are gone, gone gone!

The card today is a spring card and the idea came from Carey Payette on the Stampin Connection website.

Hope you enjoy

The technique used is called the Drop Shadow.  The image is stamped in 2 different ink colours.  Stamp one image, clean the stamp and load up with the next ink.  Place the stamp just a tad over and down.  Vola!

For the sentiment, the stamp was coloured using markers and stamped.  The saying was stamped using Crumb Cake ink and the Stamp-a-ma-jig.

So until next time….
