Tasteful Backgrounds Dies

This is a card that uses the dies to make an impression on

cardstock.  Tasteful Backgrounds on page 196 work well

when trying this technique.  It makes for a simple, yet 

elegant card.

Good Morning Magnolia

I have to say that I'm really glad that I was able to post

today.  Behind the scenes, I have been having computer 

problems for several months....ugh!!  Hard drive and logic

board were replaced in my 2+ year old computer.  I believed

my computer problems were behind me.  No such luck.

Apparently when the computer was put back together, the

internal microphone was covered over.  For some, that

would not be a problem.  However, given that I do Zoom

meetings, in order to work from home, it was a huge problem.
I found myself asking "can you hear me now?"

So I headed back to the Apple store today.  It was a 

ghost town because of a certain virus, so now's the time to take your computer in.

Anyway, the tech knew immediately what had happened and

had it fixed in an hour.  I am overjoyed to say that I am

back in business, literally and figuratively.

So, my card for today uses the Good Morning Magnolia set 

(page 38).  This is a set that enables coloring of spectacular

images, with blends, aqua painter or watercolor pencils! 

Tropical Chic with Tropical Dies

The Tropical Chic stamp set (page 93), with 

coordinating Tropical Dies (page 197) are an elegant

combo.  The ability to easily create a fern window

makes it look like you worked harder than you

actually did.  That's the kind of product that I like!
