Hello Peeps! Taylor is back with a new sketch, TECS155:
... and this is what I came up with:
Simple, but elegant.
Recipe: Vintage Dreamer stamp set, DP, paper flower, black pearls (February Key Ingredients Kit-Taylored Expressions)... Basic Black card stock, Crumb Cake and Poppy Parade ink, and Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder (SU!)... Tuxedo Black ink (Memento)... Ribbon (Martha Stewart)... Oval die (Spellbinders)...
Make sure you check out what the Sketch Crew came up with:
Margie Cortina (out this week) Monika Davis <---- you are here! Taylor VanBruggen <---- get all the details here Chaitali Narla, featured Top Chef
I actually made this card couple of weeks ago. Goofed it up and used today's sketch, so I had to set the card aside.
I was going to make another one, but ran out of time... I was trying to figure out why typepad didn't let me up-load pictures! Many months ago we must have changed a setting on my lap-top so I wasn't able to up-load pictures into my posts... so I started to use our regular computer (which is an old bear) to do that... then yesterday, the computer didn't let me up-load pictures! So I had to spend some time on reading computer language (which I hate!). BUT, I figured it out. And guess what! It took me one second, pushing one button, to fix it! I don't know if I should be crying or smiling!
Thanks for visiting, and enjoy your weekend!
Monika
