I love the minimal embellishments on this card, it really makes the image and sentiment stand out. However, I can’t do plain! 
I decided to use this gorgeous leather textured paper in Cordovan to make my sentiment stand out and to adorn the corners. It gives the card the perfect amount of pizazz!

An amazing site that all woman should visit and shop at. The following statement has been taken directly from their website. ” Every purchase goes toward helping women in poverty. We invest 100% of our profits into microloans for underprivileged women”. Their products are heavenly! I have some of the a wild soapbar soap and I am so in love with it!! If you haven’t used a saponofied soap before you are missing out on a real skin treat. I have made my own soap for several years now but just haven’t had the time lately so went searching online for some. I came across a wild soapbar and then came across Soap Home where everything is already discounted and then they donate profits to a fantastic cause, can it get any better? Yes, they allow you to select 3 free samples! They sell all of the best products available on this earth including one of my favorite Zum by Indigo Wild that makes the most amazing face wash. I am literally in cleaning heaven!! Please visit and show your support for such a fantastic cause! Never forget…….We are all in this world together. Also please spread the word to anyone that will listen, trust me, they will thank you once they receive their products. The products you find there would be amazing Christmas gifts that you know will be used and loved. Patricia peggy posted this in Designer greeting cards on September 1st, 2010
Even though I am the PaperTemptress I really enjoy many other surfaces to design on and today I actually picked canvas. I was going thru my wood mounted stamps today (I don’t pull them out as often as I should) and came across an amazing stamp I had been wanting to ink up for a long time. It is an Inkadinkado stamp, but it does appear to be discontinued. I also have been missing playing with my Pan Pastels. Since I decided to stamp and color on canvas today I thought the Pan Pastels would be better to use. Copics do color on canvas too so I might try the same stamp with copics to see which one I like best. I am sort of grounded right now (will explain later in this post) so will be coloring more for the next week or so. Anyway this is what I came up with:
I may end up framing this and hanging it on the wall. Now to get why I am grounded……For some reason or another really odd things seem to happen to me. One that I don’t talk about much is that I have a double uterus which is extremely rare. I can actually get pregnant at two different times and carry the babies in a different uterus where they are not twins. Now I have been bitten twice by a poisonous spider and have a really bad bite on my right foot and a smaller bite on my left ankle! I had no idea what was going on but knew it wasn’t good. It is suspected that it was a brown recluse spider even though there aren’t a lot of them where I live. My right foot has a large sore on it but even worse it has a 2 inch or larger circle of gray skin around it that ends up being dead skin that has to end up coming off. My foot swells up and gets very red. My main Dr was going to put me in the hospital for a heavy dose of antibiotics but she decided to call a podiatrist specialist in. The specialist (Dr. Rude is her name) came in and immediately recognized that is was a poisonous spider bite. She says she hasn’t seen many spider bits but has seen enough to know exactly what this was. I was somewhat relieved since I didn’t have a clue what was wrong but it may take over a month to heal up which doesn’t make me happy at all! It has been LONG MONTH or actually six weeks but still smiling and creating! Like Roseanne Roseannadanna once said “if it’s not one thing it’s anudder”. LOL, I loved Gilda Radner!

Aquamarine Metallic 12 x 12 is the base. I just love the sparkle of this paper. Basis Red, Basis Green, Sparkle Mangue and Tangy Orange back the photos. The title was created on the computer. The ribbon is from Paper Temptress. Remember that there is a fantastic sale on ribbon. It is all 40% off. Aquamarine Metallic 12 x 12 is the base cindy posted this in Designer greeting cards on August 28th, 2010

This card features a sneak peak of one of the new ribbon that will be added to the store soon and a new color of the Glimmer paper line. While I was not well for the last month my ex brother in law passed away so I really needed to make a sympathy card for his wife. I took the weekend off and finally got my hands inky again. It had been way way too long since I designed anything. It felt so good. Here is the card I designed.
Patricia btw….it feels so good to be back!! Anita posted this in Designer greeting cards on August 22nd, 2010
