I spent an hour or more crafting with my friend Cat of Cat Luvs Paper, on Tuesday! Well, not REAL in person crafting, but hey, I'll take any kind of time with friends these days! Especially when I can see another face, and hear another voice!
We always have fun, and more than a few laughs - though I'll tell you right now, Cat is way more organized than I am - it took me a bit of time off camera to complete my cards, while she completed two while we chatted! yes, she's that good!
I had a blast, my friend - here is the first card using that panel I stamped during our chat - be sure to read the sentiment...
My daffodils were stamped and masked, and stamped again... until I got to the stems, it was
going well... then I forgot to mask - ugh. Nothing a few more flower heads couldn't cover up!
Okay I'm very happy to report I didn't have to start again!!!
This is an Altenew set given to me by a friend [thanks, Bobby]
but hadn't inked up yet.
MAN are there a LOT of layers to these little Build-a-Flower-Daffodils!
13 to be exact!!! Well, I had to layer up one of the bigger ones, too...
only 10 stamps to that one! It sure does make a statement though, right?
A little help from a Stampin' Up embossing folder, a scrap of PTI Spring Moss paper, and that fun little Altenew Rounded Rectangles Die set, and done!
I love your company, Cat - we really should do it more often, right? I can't wait to see your gorgeous Gerberas on the 'big screen!' Thanks for sharing your time with me!

The inks I used today were Altenew's Goldfish Tails set of inks!
