Momentous Monday...

Today
I am going to try
and venture back to work
for a little while
for the first time in 2 weeks!
Granted,
I feel tired already
and haven't even had my shower yet
but
I think once I am in motion
and doing a little something
I will feel better.

Yesterday
hubby picked lots of zinnias
and the secretaries in his department
will have a nice surprise this morning...

He put 3-4 flowers in a mason jar
to leave on their desks...
so pretty!

My great friend Theresa
is a Stampin' Up Consultant.
Sometime back on one of the SU blogs
I saw something I liked
so I sent Theresa one of my infamous
"the next time you order..." e-mails
and promptly forgot what I wanted her to order
and why!
Lol!
Luckily she saved the video
and sent it to me.
So yesterday she came over
and after we compared Copic colors
I tried my new punch and Smooch spray...
this was made just out of the scrap paper
I had at hand-and a brad that was floating around
on my craft room window sill...
in less than 5 minutes....




I absolutely LOVE IT!!!
So so pretty!
I think I am going to make some into pins
for the nice nurses in my doctors office
who helped get the surgery scheduled
before our deductible ran out
and who promptly called in
anti-nausea medicine when I needed it...

Well,
better go get myself ready...
wish me luck.
Trying 1- 1 1/2 hrs to start...
seems like a marathon tho!

Until next time,
TAKE TIME TO SMELL THE FLOWERS
and
happy stamping and scrapping!
Blessings,

That's very pretty! How many layers did you do?

Hi Anne. I used 8 layers. The person who featured this technique ran the punched flowers through a crimper a # of times as well--then put it all together. They are sooo pretty and easy! I will be showing some more variations in a while! Blessings, Sharon
