Good morning!  I hope y’all are enjoying your weekend so far.  It has been nice and quiet around here and the sun is shining as well.  You can’t ask for anything more!

A few weeks ago I was the lucky recipient of a number of new JustRite stamp sets.  Unfortunately, when I got them I didn’t have time to play with them . . . until yesterday!  I absolutely love how all the JustRite images work with Spellbinders™.  For my first card I decided to work with the set, Birdhouses.  Unfortunately, I colored my image first and then went looking for paper . . . should have found my paper first (because its easier for me).

I colored the image with Copic Markers and the paper I settled on was October Afternoon Fly a Kite.   The edges of all the paper and the images were sponged with Antique Linen Distress Ink.    The images were die cut with Spellbinders™ S4-114 Standard Circles – Large and S4-116 Standard Circles – Small.  For the larger base piece, the cardstock was die cut/embossed with S5-041 Floral Doily Motifs and the border is from S5-040 Floral Doily Accents.

I kept thinking that I wanted a red ribbon, but couldn’t find just the right color so I decided to dye seam binding with Peeled Paint.   If you missed my video the other day on how to dye seam binding, you can find it here on YouTube.

I guess that’s all for me today.  Thanks for stopping by and remember . . . life is short, embrace the adventures of the day!
