Dancing Flower Faires

I made this card using #90237 Dancing Flower Fairies from http://www.janlynn.com/ I love this stamped image.

Glitter from Sulyn was also applied to wings on girl fairy. The glitter really shows up best in my hands than in the photo.

New Cards

January 31 I left my home to be with my mother for nine days, six of those days were spent at my sisters house {we were house sitting while she was away on a trip to Jamaica}; I took lots of stamping supplies that included a very large suitcase full of supplies and totes full of tools We stamped each day as well as got out and did fun things together. My sister has a large dining table eight feet long. It was covered with plastic and newsprint before we layered it with my stamping stuff. The long counter behind my mother had my Cricut Create, Bind-it-All, Cuttlebug and paper trimmer. Here is a photo of my mother working on a card. She didn't know I was taking the photo until I snapped the camera. Also here are some of the cards I made last week. More cards to follow! Comments Welcome!

Rose Card

A Hearts in Touch stamp was used with the Pallete Stamp & Stick Gluepad that was heat set and soft pastels were applied with a cotton ball.
The red/pink background was made using a TJ technique.
Fiskars punch, corner punch and Starform stickers were used on this card as well.
I've had the gluepad for months I don't know why it took me so long to use it. I love this pad!!
