The Royal Blog Tour
** DON’T FORGET I AM POSTING A NEW CREATION EVERYDAY SO STOP BACK! **
Hello stampers and WELCOME to my blog I hope that you are having a great time looking through all of these creative blogs and your brains are just filled with tons of ideas. I am so happy that I am a part of this blogging event. I picked a beautiful NEW stamp set from the HOSTESS level 3 collection called “Kind and Caring Thoughts”. I think its one of my favorites and I hope you like what I have created with it. This card was alot of fun to make. I embossed the flower stems on this and the Rich Razzleberry background is on glossy cardstock and I used my reinker and alcohol to make this swirl pattern.

****Monday’s NEW CARD****
I absolutely LOVE this card and the colors. I never thought to put a subtle color with it like Going Gray. I embossed the flowers with the new technique I learned from Julie again and I PROMISE after this tour is over I will show you how to do it! I may even do my 1st ever U Tube video. Keep watching.

I have blog candy and you are gonna love this little twist. For every post that goes over 50 I will be adding something AWESOME to the blog candy. Please make sure you put your name and also your favorite thing on my blog.
***** PLEASE NOTE (Monday July 27th UPDATE***** I hope that I did not mislead anyone but what I meant by going over 50 posts was in 50’s ….IE 50, 100, 150, 200. So, so far, there is 2 added blog candy items added to the original. HOWEVER…. Don’t you just hate this?? Since I am at 130 right now if it goes over 350 I promise there will be a Gift Certificate on top of the blog candy. So go tell your friends and other blogging buddies to come check out my blog.
Have fun and keep going on the tour…..
