Just one of those days!

Today I got to say good bye to my car. I found out it was totaled. I had to clear out all my belongings. (It’s probably the cleanest the car has been minus the melted dashboard and fire extinguisher dust all over.) I was very sad!

Yesterday I created a card for a shoebox swap I am doing on Saturday. It’s a long drive but I wanted to be apart of this event! So I took all afternoon and created…one “OK” card.

As you can see, it needs help. I loved the colors at the bottom. What you can't see is it sparkles. I embossed it with iridescent ice. I tried all sorts of embellishments today…and nothing worked.

I was getting ready for volleyball practice, remember today is picture day…yes even the coach puts on her make-up…and this idea hit! But I had to go to practice. I stamped just to see what the colors would look like. NOTHING!

I went on SU color combo and I found my colors. (pumpkin pie, always artichoke, bravo burgundy and silver encore)

After volleyball practice, I stamped. I really liked the colors I had chosen. My technique is called Triple dimension from the technique junkie newsletter. Below is my first try.

I felt it need just a little something and out came silver cord!
