I've been so busy the last couple weeks, I've hardly stamped at all. Spring is such a busy time of year. Now that I have my garden planted and flowers in pots, I think I can relax a little. Today is a perfect day to stamp. For one, it's a three day weekend, and two....it's raining!
I love to visit the Mojo Monday blog. There are always great sketches to get the imagination going. This time I decided to participate. If you go to the Mojo Monday blog, there is also a link to help Alzheimer's disease. Click on the link Stampin' Out Alzheimer's, and you can make a donation to the cause!
The paper used in the background of my card was an idea I got from a Splitcoast Stampers tutorial on wrinkle free distress. Oh, it's so much fun! I used this technique over the weekend while working on my daughter's scrapbook. I made a couple squares of paper like this and then cut out flowers and shapes with my big shot. You can see a picture of it at the end of this post.
Here is my card...
The recipe....
Stamps: Dreams du Jour

From the scrapbook page....I made the paper, cut it out with the big shot, then embossed it and sanded it.
