I used the angel fish and the senti, inside it says thank you...I took 3 paint colors started with red, then purple, then finished with a peachy pink color...I then rolled some bubble wrap in white paint and then rolled it on my card...I stamped my fish in black ink and added sparkles to their fins. I'm entering this in the Tutorial Time challenge on Speedy TV which is where I got the technique from.

enjoy nature's splendor

today I have a "Joy fold" and spotlight card to share with you
 I really like this fold and the technique I haven't done either in a long time...but with them both being challenges at MFP I thought I'd give it a try once more.
I used my Autumn glory stamp set from MFP and followed the mesurements for the tutorial on MFP I had to alter the front a bit but the others seemed to be perfect! (I did turn it) and with the spotlight I followed that tutorial as well (they have some awesome tutes over there) I stamped my MFP leaf to make some patterened paper and used a lil fall looking flower to hold the card shut...I love how this turned out...if you know me you know I love fall!

thanks for taking a look :)

I'm really getting into making ATCs (if you follow my other blog you'll see) and so I thought I would do a Sassy in the City set of ATCs....I glimmer misted the background..I used a circle template to spray through. then I made a clay flower with one of my molds and painted that...added some purple paint around the edges, and the circles to match her dress and shoes (one thing I know about the show is they love their shoes!)
