Welcome my new followers in the order of joining: Kate from Just Kate Klaudiya Ray from Handmade by Kaudiya Carla - sorry, could not find a link, but will happily add one.... Tenia from Jazzy Paper Designs Sarah from Sazzle Dazzle Crafts And here is your welcome picture: I discovered this on a recent visit in New York City - its called Seed 54 and is by Haresh Lalvani . Its fascinating to look at. If you are interested you can also watch this youtube video And if you have time, you may visit my "newbies" and say hello - they have wonderfully creative blogs, full of  amazing inspiration!  And now back to card making: I finally managed to  make a card for the  Cure for the Monday Blues  - fabulous ...

Betsy Feldman  shows us a cool technique on this weeks  Make It Monday . She calls it "Drop Shadow Die Cuts". Its simple, yet effective. I had to try it..... Looks cool right? All die cuts and stamps are Papertrey, except the "happy" - that's from Paper Smooches.  I am also playing in the Curtain call challenge this week. The delicious inspiration photo is below. Guess what the centers of my flowers are......... ......you got it!  Mini Marshmallows I am also linking this card with: Creative Friday  -   Kraft Snippets Playground   - everything die cut is made with snippets And just to show you the snow we had 2 days ago - now imagine that with an additional layer of perhaps 6 inches of heavy, wet snow followed by icy rain....... Stay warm!
