About Me

I have been enjoying scrapbooking and stamping for over 8 years. I am happily married of almost 5 years and we just had our first baby, a son! We are so blessed and happy, and being able to stamp and create just makes everything complete!

"Take Time to Relax" with wine and a sunset...



I have entered another challenge at the "Sassy Studio Designs" blog, challenge #12. This week the challenge is to make a creation using a butterfly and a flower. Now, at the moment all my SASSY images that I have are all "indoor" images and to me butterflys and flowers means outdoors. Soooo, I thought outside of the box and came up with this...

I took my Sassy image and cut the girl out (originally she is lazing in a chair drinking wine), then a made a photo of a porch swing into clipart and colored it in and then I made my creation! It is a little wall hanging. I made it too big to be a card, LOL!!! But you know I thought it was a good little inspiration wall hanging, we should always be reminding ourselves to "Take time to Relax". The background is supposed to be a "at dusk" sky, and you can't see them too well, but I did use spots of silver stickles for the stars that are JUST appearing!!!




Hope you enjoy this and wish me luck with the challenge!!! I just LOVE entering these contests, I may not win, but it sure inspires me! Cheers for now!
