Sophie's Rose and Sympathy Bugs

MY FIRST PROJECT IN MY NEW CRAFT ROOM!!!  Soon I'll be adding THAT post...of my craft room I mean.  :)  You'd think taking pics of a room would be easy but it seems to be the last thing you feel like doing after moving.  Yikes!!

For today's card I used this super cute image from Sylvia Zet called "Sympathy Bugs".  It's available as a digi or rubber stamp.


I'm not sure if I've ever colored these cuties before or not but I've had this stamp FOREVAH!!!  They are so stinkin' cute!!  I was so happy to stamp 2 of these but use only 1 and have no practice piece.  FIRST TIME EVAH!!!   WOO!!  Jeeps all kinds of firsts goin' on here!


I'm using papers from Michele R Designs called "Sophie's Rose" and I discovered something cool.  I'm not sure if it's new but to me it is.  When I printed these papers I noticed they were a bit dark, which could have been my printer but thankfully that doesn't matter!   I found a feature in Word that allowed me to change the color of the papers and brighten them up.  YAY!  Much nicer!!

I've also used pieces from the Elements 2 package, the butterflies and sentiment.  I created a tassel with a Marianne Designs die using some of the papers that came with the 6 x 6 design sheets.  They are just stunning!

Hope you are enjoying your week and thanks so much for stopping by!
