More New Stuff

So, I'm finally done with my CHA projects! Yay! Everything is mailed off or packed and ready to go with me. Speaking of CHA, a couple of posts ago I wrote asking for shoe advice. Thanks to everyone for your awesome ideas. There are so many cute shoes out there! I ended up going to the mall yesterday. (The little guy had to endure 3 1/2 hours of shopping!). I found a cute pair of Aerosoles.



They are super comfy and really cute. So, now I'm all set!

And I hit Talbot's clearance sale! I spent a little too much, but the deals were really good. Check out these cute yellow shoes I picked up:



I don't think I've owned yellow shoes, EVER! But they were so cute. So, I HAD to splurge on this skirt. I love it!


Well, enough of my shopping endeavours.. onto some projects.
This one is a layout I did for Tattered Angels. I used the new chipboard Tiles, Bingo Boards, Compass stamp and Glimmer Mists in Caramel Apple, Frost, Frozen Lake and Sand. I love the quote on here! It says, " A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles."





Here's another version of my butterfly card. This next card uses the new big butterfly stamp. I love it! I sprayed Pashmina and Frozen Lake onto the card. Then stamped it. It gives a great 'watercolory' effect. I cut out the butterfly and adhered it to the card. Then I painted a piece of butterfly Glimmer Glass white. I added Pashmina mist once it dried. Then, I painted a butterfly Glimmer Screen with mod podge and stamped that onto the glass. Next, I sprinkled glitter onto it. I like how it gave it a textured butterfly pattern!





Well, that's all for today. Thanks so much for stopping by!
