I spent a fabulous crafty, all girls weekend at sweet Brenda's house along with Lisa, Trinh and Vera. We had a wonderful time creating, chatting, eating, shopping and laughing, and MORE creating, chatting, and laughing! One thing I learned about Trinh and Vera, is that they are extremely productive, and that Brenda and Lisa have a terrific sense of humor!
Brenda created the center panel using a wine label from Jacqueline, and I went from there and created the stamped notecard using a Hero Arts "Old Letter Writing" (S4878) background stamp.
I went on to make a second card using a Tim Holtz embossing folder which Trinh allowed me to borrow while she was here.
Ink: Walnut Stain Distress ink
Other: Dies (MFT: Zig Zag die; Button die); Twine; Tim Holtz embossing folder
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog! :-)
