More Presents!?!

If you check out the All That Scraps blog: http://atsblog.typepad.com/ats/ and just reply to Christine's latest post about the butterfly set, you can be entered for yet another give-a-way! Check out the samples she has posted with that set! Really beautiful. I have been having fun using the chicks and the birthday set (all you have to do is look at the last several posts here on my blog to see how much I am LOVING the birthday set!)
Do you like this one? I LOVE it! I don't usually mix patterned papers very well. I get all nervous thinking the patterns don't really match, so when a company makes an entire line of paper they usually take the guess work out of it for me. There are papers that I really like...and then there are very few paper lines that I think, "I need to buy 10 sheets of each!" These are some of those papers! They are by My Minds Eye - if you check out the collection of My Minds Eye paper at All that Scraps, you'll be in heaven. Such eye candy.
This card has alot of layers on it...they are layered in differing heights too. A friend (hi Lorie!) loaned me some dimensionals at the Birch Run weekend. She said, "Just keep 'em, they are way to think..I don't like them." Well, I love that if you want a really dimensional project they are thicker than the Stampin' Up! dimensionals so you can easily stack things up. I have to find out where she got them because I used them all!
The image is water colored with Stampin' Up! inks and an aquapainter. I used Ruby Red brads on the plaid panel and Mustard and Celery grosgrain ribbon from Stampin Up! I hope you have a great day!

saw your card and loved it.... just a note that if you are looking for the little bit taller dimensionals, try to find that at a Dollar Store not the Dollar Tree but generic dollar stores. Hope this is helpful...
