A New Start

So, today I have re-vamped my site. In the past, I thought I would share my thoughts and ideas on things... turns out I didn't have much to say. But I do have a lot to SHOW. I love stamping and making cards, and I constantly visit other blogs where crafters show what they've made, and let you know how they did it. So I've decided it's time for me to get on board and do the same. I hope you bear with me as I learn how to do this. As I sit here typing, I realize that I do not know the first thing about how to add pictures here, or how to share all of great promotions from Stampin' Up!- but I will learn!
Here goes nothing...

Woohoo!
So this is a card I made last week for my grandmother's 94th birthday. Yes- 94- and she still lives in her own home! She is an awesome lady. I'm sorry the picture isn't great- I snapped it quickly with my I-phone before I gave it to her, because I had forgotten to take a good picture with my camera.
Here are the details:
Card stock: crumb cake, wisteria wonder
Stamps: Swallowtail, Curly Cute
Ink: wisteria wonder 
Accessories: 1/2 inch vanilla seam binding (sponged with wisteria wonder ink), rhinestones, labels collection framelits to cut out the sentiment, and pop up dots to raise the sentiment piece.
I originally got my inspiration from this card, on Splitcoast Stampers: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2347175?&cat=23822.

That's my share for today. Thanks for checking me out!
