*Stencilled Birthday*

A few years ago, I wasn't at all interested in stencils... and suddenly I have more than a dozen.  I have no idea what changed my mind about them.  But I really like ink blending on them as well as using them with the Glimmer Paste.  For this card, I did both.

I wasn't sure about leaving the floral image of this card uncoloured... but I think I like the overall feel of this card.  It's something a little different for me.

*Love & Hugs*

I'm happy it's the weekend...  I know I've only worked 2 days this week, but I am tired.  I will get used to it, I know... but for today, I am tired.  I've got nothing planned until I have to head back to work on Tuesday morning.  I truly love my job and am so happy to be back, sitting at the desk, greeting patients, laughing with my co-workers and feeling like I'm contributing to something other than the divot on a couch.  I am missing my wide open crafty time and this is working only half my regular schedule!  I'm going to have to be more focused on days I don't work if I want to create!
