Excited..... ya think? I just found out I was selected to be a Summer Gardener for the GREETING FARM! I was so hesitant to check the blog to see who was chosen and then when I finally did and saw my name I had to go back and check a couple more times just to be sure I wasn't imagining it. Did I tell you how excited I am? I have to say they are right at the top of my favorite stamp companies. I love how easy they are to color and how I can use them for so many different things besides cards. OK, OK, I will stop gushing.
I went a little overboard when making samples for the DT submission so I have several samples to post over the next couple days.
I used one of the new Anya stamps to make a flip flop card. Pretty anya is enjoying herself soaking up the sun. I used a digi stamp from ALL THAT SCRAPS for the flip flop. I just made it the size I wanted in photoshop and cut the straps free hand. This is definitely a give in person card for obvious reasons. I punched holes at the ends of a piece of rectangle paper and threaded embroidery floss through to make the fringe. I put some crystal lacquer on her sunglasses to make them shiny, they look pretty cool.
