Blog Candy and other goodies....

It's candy time again!! Still celebrating my belated "blogversary"!!
If you become a follower (or already are!) and leave a comment below,
you'll be entered for my sah-weeet "All About the Girls" blog candy!
It's all about bling, flowers, and sweet girly touches for any of your
crafting projects! And speaking of crafting projects, here is another of
my latest:

A simple, pretty fall card....the 4th and final of the cards for
the Glimmer Mist (GM) card class I am teaching at Hannah's, the LSS.
The leaf stamp is from Unity (Simple Blessings....truly a versatile
set!) I used Distress Ink in Rusty Hinge for the stamping, and for
the soft inked edges. The soft background pieces were made using
the Sugar Maple and Deep Plum GM and a "wash effect"....you first
spray, then quickly swipe the extra off. It leaves that soft brushed
effect....so pretty!

Really amazing if you look back at all four cards, how different they
can look using the same 3 colors of GM, but using very different
techniques.

Well....time to get inky...hope this inspires you to go get crafty!!
And don't forget to leave a comment....it could net you some super
sweet candy!!
