Mark's Finest Papers Blog Hop Day 3




This versatile set is called Hello Sunshine, great for all year and all occasions. I used to do a lot of cross stitch before I discovered stamping so I have tons of supplies begging to be used. I made a magnet using one of those frames, coloring the pretty sunshine with various Copic markers, also available at Mark's Finest Papers store.
My second sample uses Basic Grey Indian Summer designer paper.

    Your little frame is just adorable. I remember those (there's a couple on the Christmas tree).

  26. I thought I posted but don't see an entry so will try again. If it eventually shows up, please excuse the double entry. The magnet is great and the image perfect for it. Your selection of dp for the retirement card is perfect, a talent I don't have but I do enjoy the works from those who do.

  27. We have a lot of ex-cross-stampers making comments...count me as one of them. I like your work and enjoy the result of those who can select dp that 'works' such as on the retirement card.
