I hope this thread will be allowed!

How it all started...well, my mom is a big time card maker. Actually, scratch that...she loves to collect supplies for card making lol. Eventually she started using all of her supplies and I've joined in on the fun. So I'll try and post new cards as I make them...enjoy!!!

First up! I made this card with Stampin' Up's new set from the spring '09 catalog. The name of the set escapes me lol. I did this using an aqua painter.

Close up of the flower...

Using dimensionals and a bit of curling...

Very pretty Caley! If I tried to do that, it would look like a 4 year old's art project.

Aside from scrapbooking, maybe I should attempt card making too.

Caley those are great! I used to be a SU! demonstrator but they require $300 in purchases every quarter and I was sooo running out of room, lol. I love the layering you did on the green and pink one.. pop up dots and glue are so much fun.
