Pretty Pallete from My Time Made Easy







I have been wanting to join in on My Time Made Easy Pretty Pallette for a while now...and here me am ! These are the colors for this week's palette on the left.


This image is from Lauren Meader's store. Don't ya just love it? It is a digital image called Daphne Dolphin and it was easy peasy to buy, plus I had it on my computer as soon as I could download it. The papers are called Fresh Fabric Collection 2 and 3. All I had to do was download these beautiful papers and again, I had it within minutes. I can use these papers when ever I want and I can use them over and over again as many times as I want!

I colored this darling image with my Prisma Color Pencils and Gamsol. The blue cardstock is "Bashful Blue" from SU. I used my Scalloped Circle Nestabilities and added some rhinestones (they are supposed to look like bubbles) that I have had in my stash. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink and I stamped it with Momento Tuxedo Black on the first Spellbinders Labels. The Iridescent Curling Ribbon was a gift from my friend and blogging buddy Beate Johns. I just love that ribbon...Thanks Beate!!



Blogger is giving me fits again...as you can probably tell and I have got to get to work, so I am leaving this as is, even though it drives me nuts!


Thank you all for stopping by and taking a look at one of the things in my life that makes me happy. That is paper crafting! The other things that make me happy are my wonderful family, my faith, my dog "Piper," and my beautiful home. Actually, I can think of so many other things that I decided to leave it alone...otherwise you would get bored and probably jealous... I am so blessed!!
