RETIREMENT (TIME TO HAVE SOME FUN)

Good evening, it seems like a long time since I posted anything new here, but life has been really busy. I don't seem to get much time for blogging although I have been really busy with my DT duties and creating new things. I recently started remaking my office/craft room and will show it off once I have my storage all set up. The painting is done, the furniture has been moved around and I have removed a couple of pieces and replaced them with a more functional storage system. So very soon it will be finished.

Today I am going to show a retirment card that I recently made for a friends aunt. She loves cream and lavender and you know that was right up my alley. Two of my favorite colors with bling. The image that I used is from Bugaboo Stamps her name is Scarlett and I think she is very much a diva.

The image was colored with copics E11, E13, E15, E23, E25, E51, E50, E53, V15, V20, spica glitter pen lavender, wild orchid roses, Sissx floral die, the sentiment was typed on the computer. the bling was from my stash and I used my Cuttlebug and embossed the inside with one of the art deco embossing folders. So as you can see, I really have been busy. I have about 7 more cards yet to preview. I have played with clay and started a real art journal. I have played with dragons and magicians and I will be showing all of these things over time. So don't give up on me. I am still around and working hard. There are a few challenges that I want to post this card for.
