but it sure enough did!! I didn't seem to get
much of anything accomplished.
So....new plan for tomorrow.......
Sleeping in!!

Only 3 new cards tonight.

First up is for Lollipop Crafts-
Use your favorite coloring medium.
Must say I'm not sure if this is my favorite
coloring medium, but is a new thing I tried,
and I do like it. It was using distress inks as watercolors.
I used a digi stamp from Karen's Doodles.
Distress ink, a fiskers butterfly punch,
MS leaf punch and a CM flower punch.
The paper is DCWV. Pearls are from my stash.
Stickles for the tiny centers of the blue flowers.

Next is for

and Dutch Dare-sparkle, glitter or bling.
A very simple card!!
