Embossed Hello Doily







Concord Crush really makes this white embossed Hello Doily pop.  I must admit that embossing is not my favorite thing to do because I am simply not good at it.  I would like to be good at it because it is a beautiful look.  Speaking of look, don't look to close at this picture cause I really am not good at this.  :-)

Christmas Stamp-a-Stack

Linda and Short Barb (I call her that since there are two Barbs)

First Timer, Beth (and she was the first finished.)

Good neighbors Andrea and Brenda work on their cards.

Everyone is busy at this table.  Cheryl, Laura and Susan.

One nice way to use a background stamps is to bring it up front.  Rosemary Morgan did that in this friendship card.  Soft Suede ink is used to give a soft look to this large flower.
