I'm Back!

Ok, so it has been months since I posted.... why, you ask?   I have spent the last few months getting ready for a little "addition" to our family.  My husband and I welcomed Baby Rocco on July 30th.  We feel so blessed to have such a perfect little guy!  We are truly enjoying parenthood and all that comes with it! Here is a picture of our new little family.

Rocco is now 2 and half months and we have worked hard to develop a bit of a daily routine.  Which means that I am ready to get back into the swing of things!  During my pregnancy I continued to meet with my monthly Workshop on the Go (WOTG) Playgroups and created lots of artwork so I do have lots to share in addition to all of the artwork I have created with the new products that are available in the 2012 Autumn/Winter Idea Book & Catalog!  I love the new products- new Artiste Cricut Cartridge Collection, a Make It From Your Heart Idea Book, stamp sets, paperpacks, accessories, and an expanded Workshop on the Go Collection that now includes home decor and card kits!  Don't have a copy of it yet?  Are you ready to get your hands on one? Grab a cup of coffee (or tea, or whatever your favorite drink is) and  view the new Idea Book online here then contact me to get your very own copy!

So now for a little artwork...  I created this card for my sisters birthday last week.  I used the new Flirty Paper Pack (X7160B) and lots of prisma glitter!  I was inspired by the artwork of P. Dolecki, she used the prisma glitter with this paper and I knew I had to create a card to show off the fun factor in this snazzy paper!  I used the Bonding Memories Glue Pen over the colored areas of the flowers and then added prisma glitter to highlight them. The stamp set used is Just a Number (D1514) which has lots of clever birthday phrases such as this one.  I stamped the "With age comes wisdom..." on the outside of the card.  The inside sentiment reads "you are one of the wisest people I know"!  I got a funny look and a smirk when she read it!

Happy Creating!
