~Let’s Dish some Dirt!~
April 4th, 2008 by Holly McMillen
Let’s! Here’s the dirt here…. DH is going back to work on Monday!!!!! Woohoo!!! All of your prayers and thoughts have really helped. I can’t thank you all enough. As much as I’ve complained about him being around all the time, but I’m so going to miss him! Yeah, I actually said that. LOL
I needed to make a sample for the new “Can you dig it?” set from My Favorite Things (www.mftstamps.com). This new set is packed with fun!! I can’t wait to make another one with it. It has so many different elements…. you really should check it out!
I made my own DP again. The Basic Gray layer is striped with a black copic. The smaller Brilliant Blue mat is dotted with a gel pen to match her dress. Her little spade is cut out and popped on dimensionals.
Here’s my deets:
Stamps: Can You Dig It by My Favorite Things
Colors: Brilliant Blue, Basic Gray, Basic Black, GP White
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, copics, white gel pen
Accessories: brads, ribbon, dimensionals. scallop circle punch, ruler
TFL!~ and have a blessed day!
Thank God for that! This card is adorable. I can not wait to get my hands in the dirt! By the way, Just an FYI, I have nominated you with the Arte Y Pico award you can read about it here…

Your card is just great! I love that you used the bright blue and gray! And your layout is fantastic!!

I love the stripes with this!! (I never would have pulled them out ot go with this–but it would be my loss–because it ROCKS)
I think this is beautiful–with out being frilly.
