Hello and welcome back to the blog! It's Monday, and I can't believe it is the last week of February already! I spent the weekend making cards, enjoying some of my favorite shows on Netflix and doing laundry!  Multi-tasking can be overwhelming at times, but you'll not have something to do! I can't believe I managed to get all of the work I needed to do completed.  I was crafty chatting with Jeanne, and she was coloring the most beautiful piece. Also, Altenew released the latest Paint A Flower, which I ordered around midnight, so I could make sure to get one! I've shared a link at the bottom of this post!  Anywho let's get to today's card! 

Snapshot Stamp and Die Combo! I've gone ahead and shared links to this and more down below.
I used the die and made 4 blank copies of the outline. Then stamped up the images using Rock Collection Oval Inks and Obsidian Black.  I glued them together and place it onto a piece of Pastel Dreams paper pack. This pape pack has so many fabulous designs to choose from! It's a must-have!
I also added some Jet Black cardstock, to frame it and added it to my cardbase! Then I finished it with the Loved Sentiment. 

You all know leaves are my favorite, I love nature photos as well. When we lived in Washington, we use to visit Mt Rainier all the time!  The trees were gorgeous! If you've been you know what I'm talking about, and if you haven't you need to go just once in your lifetime! Also here's another shot of the card I made! 

Well, that's it for today! I hope you have a fabulous day! God Bless!

Hello and welcome to the blog! I'm Eva Bussom, fellow blogger, artist, and fur mom! lol!

I managed to do another live today! Fridays are my favorite days of the week. The teenager doesn't have school, I get to sleep in a bit before getting ready for Bible study, and I normally have a quiet morning.  It is so nice just to relax and let the day happen as it will.  One there is going to be a bit of a change to the blog, I will no longer be blogging on the weekends. I have to give that time to my family, who without their support I couldn't do what I love to do, which is to write and create!  I took another step today and put away my painting supplies. As I continue to pair down my crafty stash to something more manageable and meaningful. I can't hold onto all the things I own, so the likes and loves are going into different categories. I've decided to keep my Altenew, Pretty Pink Post Scrapbook, Lawn Fawn and Simon Says Stamp products and donate the rest. It's going to be lots of work, but I know when I get into the new space and get it just how I want, it will be incredible to know what I have and where it's at!

On to today's card. I created this live on Facebook. ITa simple card with a main stamped image which is the Mega Greetings with Thanks and Hello and smaller sentiments that work amazingly with them, I used Obsidian Black ink for it. Also using Garden Silhouette in Rock Collection which is gray tones, and Heart Beat from the Tea Party collection of inks from Altenew. You can find my video here https://www.facebook.com/evabussom/videos/10221345809530137/ I hope you enjoy it.

Here are the links to what I used for this card.

Before typing this up, the hubby and I were watching some TV and I realized that only the dogs were using the couch!  These boys love being comfy! They are so adorably lazy, lol! I love them so much! 

Well that it for today. I'll see you tomorrow. God is always guiding us to him, through everything we do... so do it for the right reasons!
