*insert weeping sounds*
I have sad, heartbreaking news.
My brother, who got married last week, took the camera (the DSLR) with him.
And it's gone to stay permanently with him and his wife.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHH.
*sniff*
*grouchy face*
ok anyways..... today's card (photo taken with point-and-shoot) ...... is created with a beautiful stamp set by Nina Brackett for The Craft's Meow. Gorgeous, Timeless Tags. I used three of them on this card....
^^ observe sad lighting and color-ation of photo ^^
*sniff again*
Oh how pretty. (the stamps not the photo)
Oh! and this stamp set coordinates with a Spellbinders die set!! so if you have a die set that looks like this, you HAVE to get yourself these stamps. They're lovely and super high quality too.
Allllright..... so again, like yesterday, you get a chance to win this stamp-y set if you leave a comment here, and your chances increase with every comment posted on the other team-mates blogs. Ready? set. go.

Vio, you are so funny! lol Your point and shoot is doing a fine job, although I know what you mean about a DSLR... I love mine. I think you should start saving up and soon you'll have one of your very own!
Your card is pure loveliness, just like everything you make. ;) I adore it, and I adore you! Thank you for blessing TCM with your time and talent!
Love and hugs,
Lisa
P.S. Same colors? Who cares? They are perfect, that's why they are worth a repeat performance!

I just love how you layered different flower shapes onto each other! How pretty! and the random half-pearls really give your card that 'pay attention to detail' look! TFS

I do see the difference now that you have pointed it out, but it still looks good. You can sell lots of stuff in your Etsy and buy your very own camera silly girl. :)
I love how you used all 3 tags and the leaves from the Fushia set. Stunning!
Hugs~
