I do LOVE the new SU 100# Thick Whisper White CS on pg. 149 of the new annual catty. It makes such a sturdy base for a CAS style card. Great for One Layer cards too.
I was still playing with my girlfriends Gelli Plate, but tried watercolors instead of acrylics this time. Love the results. I used yellow, orange, pinkish red and tiny bit of grape to get a pretty Ombre effect for Virginia's View Challenge #15: Ombre &/Or Monochromatic. I loved how it turned out.
Challenge #3: Addicted to Stamps & More #148: Anything Goes. ATS&M Celebrating their 3rd Birthday. I LOVE this challenge so thought my card was perfect. Thank you Kylie for keeping us so inspired for 3 years :-)
Challenge #5: STAMPlorations Anything Goes. Must use at least one STAMPlorations Stamp Set. I love the font and sentiments on their "Fond Expressions" set.
Thank you Lydia for honoring as one of the new DDG's this month. I still finding hard to believe :-) Pauline Godfrey aka "lotsofstamps" is the other new Dirty Girl and has a wonderfully creative style.
Thank you also for all the congratulations and sincere comments on our photo's, bio's and cards. It has been a very exciting and humbling few days :-)
SCS is the BEST because of all of you my friends!

Beautiful card, Nancy! I love the neat BG you made for the dragon fly image! The sentiment font is really nice and I'm sure loving those stitched rectangles!

Nancy, love this card - great colour combo. I've never heard of a Gelli plate, love the outcome of how you used this. Nice pierced layering as well. Fabulous sentiment!
So happy to be sharing in this month's spotlight with you - your creations are so beautiful, you are very artistic! Hugs,
