it's been quite a while since my last post. unfortunately i was ill for the past month, today i'm finally feeling a bit back to my normal self. so i thought why not take today & share something. dip the old toe back in the blog pond :)
a while back, stacy marks of Marks Paper Company had asked me to guest design. i, of course, was so excited to take her up on her offer & created the following four layouts with her beautiful patterned papers and die cuts (the die cuts were my favorite) which debuted this past october 1st on the website.
don't you love all of that gorgeous purple!
& speaking of purple...be sure to check out the newest tarisota gallery. it revealed the other day & it has to be one of the most interesting & inspiring yet. the team came up with so many ingenious ways of using the gorgeous lavender fabrics & beautiful embellishments this month. there are gorgeous necklaces & beautiful mixed media paintings, crafted dragonflies & flowers and, of course, stunning layouts. the best thing is that because i was sick, i was unable to create with my stunning tari box yet, so now i get to scraplift & craftlift all of my wonderful team members like i always want to!! i'm really excited about it :)
hope you have a wonderful friday!!
xoxo

Love these. Straight to the point and yet subtle too. btw what pen is that, that stays so defined, even on textured paper, a nib?
well done on coming back with oomph!!!
