Retired lists, weekly deal and new projects!

April 24, 2014

I've been busy with family lately. We went on a ski trip last week. It was so fun and the girls had an amazing time. It was their first time seeing it snow. (They have seen sleet). They were great skiing too! Even Amanda did great who is afraid of heights. Their instructors were so proud of them. (Me too!)

Here's some pics of my trip:

Tuesday night was my supper club. We had a roast and some of the sides that my friends brought were really unique. Carrot soufflé and raspberry cupcakes. Yum!

Here's the technique we did.

Faux Patina is a really easy technique but following the instructions is important. You can go to Splitcoast Stampers to see video and other instructions. I did use the gold ink pad instead of gold embossing powder though.

The stamp I used is from the April Paper Pumpkin. I love how it's just in time for Mother's Day plus the cute frame that came with it will be fun to decorate.

Colors used on this project:

Crumb Cake, Marina Mist, Always Artichoke, Early Espresso, Pool Party, Whisper White.

Don't forget that there's FREE shipping until April 25th. Also the retired lists are out and everything is while supplies last. So don't wait to get the stamp sets that you want. Already there's stamps sold out. :(
