Dream, Inspire, Create

What is better than a glittery dragonfly flitting around a garden?  I used the CASology Cue Card "Free" as inspiration for this card.  Hope you can see all the glitter on the wings.

Have a great day!

Thanks For Your Support and WOYWW

I've missed playing along with WOYWW lately, but hopefully now that school is out, I can be a regular participant. 
 My friend gave me this empty Crayola marker container because she thought I might be able to use it for my crafts , and as soon as I saw it, I thought of my distress inks and paints. 

This is what it looks like from the top.  I'm definitely going to alter it, since I have lots of Tim's papers, and took his configuration class.

I also picked up this vintage stamp holder at a yard sale for a dollar, so I feel so organized now!  All my distress inks, paints and stains will be easy to find. 
 
The last thing I want to show you all is a card I just finished that is made with a fun Stampin Up stamp.  
I'm entering this in 3 challenges, CAS(E) this Sketch,  Retro Sketches and Casology Cue Card "Free".
Birds have so much freedom with their ability to fly.

 Thanks for stopping by, and definitely check out lots of other creative work spaces over at Julia's Stamping Ground Blog.

 I love reading all of your comments!

Need for Speed



The challenge over at Less is More is called the "Need for Speed".  I don't have lots of vehicle stamps, so I went with my sailboat. Since it had to be one layer, I stamped it on watercolor paper and then painted around it.  We used to own a sailboat when we lived on a lake, and I can remember how fast we could zip across Spofford Lake.  When the wind died down, it was a whole different experience, and we would drift around for a while until it picked back up.  Fun memories!
I'm also linking with Simon Says Stamp, where the theme is Transport, and The Dedicated House- Anything Blue Friday.
