Finally! Convention Samples!

Finally, I am getting around to posting my convention samples! So sorry for the delay, life has been super crazy lately! I feel awful, I know some have already posted ALL of their samples. . . and her is my first. Yes, you have my permission to stone me! Can I plea better late than never?!

So, here is my first sample to share. I created this one with the Kinda Eclectic stamp set (which we received FREE for attending convention!) and some watercolor paper and embossing powder. I am seriously addicted to watercolor paper now thanks to Jane Lee and Melody Hyde. . .

The cute little flowers are from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack, I added some pearls to the centers for some cuteness. I also used some Epic Day Washi tape and Lullaby DSP. Hope to be back again next week with some more samples to share!

Welcome back to another Artisan Wednesday Blog Hop! Hope you are enjoying!

Funny. . . when I first looked through the catalog, I almost immediately fell in love with the Kinda Eclectic set! I though it was sooooo up my alley! Boy was I in for a surprise! I found it much more difficult to create with than I had anticipated. And although I originally LOVED the Gold Soiree DSP. . . it was a challenge for me as well! I just seemed to be having a hard time coming up with something using these products that I loved just as much as the set and paper itself.

So, I pulled a Jane. I used a banner and some stitching, and viola! It worked! I finally came up with a post worthy card. Thanks Jane, you are such an inspiration to me!

Oh, but BEWARE! It's a bright one! Perhaps I should have used a different color for the card base. . . NAH! I could use some bright and cheery!

Now, let's head In The Cat Cave and visit my friend Cathy, who is also full of inspiring ideas!
