May Arts, Cutting Cafe and and WOYWW

A jam packed blog post today...first, I have a tutorial for you over at the May Arts blog.  Here's a little sneak peek.  ;-)   Any guesses what this is?  Oh, go ahead and peek!

 

We have several friends who have purchased new homes recently.  I used the colors from the Off the Wall Craftiness challenge #48 to create a card for one of them.
                                                  


The scalloped base, circles, house and sentiment (Welcome Home) are from The Cutting Cafe. Be sure to pop over to see all the new Easter sets Regina has designed for this year.  The colors look off here but they're much better IRL...I took this late at night...too late!

Finally, here's a peek at my workdesk for WOYWW over at Julia's Stamping Ground.  I printed out a cool background from the Cutting Cafe.  It's next up on my list of things to do.  Those Hershey bars are for a Chocolate Book...not for eating.  Good thing I'm not crazy about chocolate or they couldn't stay there too long.   My friend, Sabrina, sent me those gorgeous pearl accents a while ago and I've been hoarding them.  I thought maybe if I put them ON the desk, I might get the courage to use them.  Those yummy dots are Martha Stewart that were on clearance at Walmart a while ago.  I got a couple of sets...hmmm, maybe one will turn up in a blog candy.  The unmounted stamps arrived to day from Impression Obsession.  I love that they have so many options for purchasing to save $$
