Day 327

It is hard to believe Memorial Day weekend is here. We have been having summer weather for a while in Wisconsin. This past week has been in the mid 80's and as high as 92. Yesterday it rained and the temps are suppose to be in the 80's for the weekend. My garden is all planted and most of it is up so let's hope that the danger of frost is over. To signal the start of summer my card for today is a flip flop card from My Scrap Chick. If you don't get their newsletter you are missing out on some great free files. The paper is Coredinations and the edges are sanded.

Have a great weekend. We are doing my favorite thing...staying home!

Day 306

Another My Scrap Chick card. This bird is part of the whimsical winter package. I cut the bird from Black Magic coredinations paper. It is a textured black on the front and white on the back. It is cool for embossing which you will see on tomorrows post. BUT, it does not do well for fine detail cuts. The bird should have 2 curls on the top of it's head but the way the paper is pressed together makes it fragile for intricate cuts and the second curl fell apart.
