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!

Hello and welcome back to the blog.  I had a great day, starting with watching my grands, so my daughter could get an oil change for her car. Afterward, I did Bible study on Facebook and finished my morning by creating a quick card on FB Live.  The back has still got me limited to how much I can do, but I'm hopeful that I'll be back to my old self sooner rather than later. The hubby keeps telling me to visit the doctor, but I'm not at that point, yet. 


Today's card is a simple but elegant design in an Obsidian black, using the leftover ink/stamp off and white cardstock.  Using only 80lb White cardstock, I love the way this card turned out.  The leaves and sentiment are from Garden Silhouette gave this creative design to a simple and easily case-able card.  The card base was a bit too plain, so I added some black paint splatters to it.  Of course all of these products from Altenew.com a link is on the right.  

It's amazing to try and get a good photo of a white card, on a white background. lol!  But somehow I got it to work! 

Keeping it short today!  God bless
