Another hobby of mine!

Square Peg, Round Hole

For the square peg in a round hole challenge at Squigglefly, I chose Tea Roses which can be purchased here:   http://www.squigglefly.com/index.php/shop/tea-roses
It’s a A2 card size just folded and cut within the Nestability shown in the 2nd picture.  I often do this and keep the folded edge of the card inside the template so it doesn’t cut my card in two.  I used a white card and "xyronned"  the image to the front and distress the edge of the nestability with Wild Honey Distress Ink.  Very subtle.  I also used a starlight clear sparkly gel pen on the flower pets edges and the edges of the dish.

I am also a square peg in a round hole - or at least it feels that way most times!

For this Squigglefly challenge, we were to "case" a DT member and I cased my mom, Linda Weber. She and I have done lots of different color combinations with this image. Since my nickname is Queen Bee, I use it alot!

I'm having fun with my new copics! I love to color - my sister and I and my mom all like to color. I bought a new BIG box of crayons at Christmas time for the grandkids - er- ok, me. Anyway, my nickname is Queen Bee. Someone called me that more than 15 years ago in a derogatory way but a friend of mine turned it into a funny nickname. And it is descriptive of me I admit it. Someone has to be the Queen Bee! This is a great Squigglefly image!

Here is the link to the challenge I entered this into (thanks mom for reminding me!)

Another card that I made tonight with a Squigglefly image. You can't see it, but I used a gel glitter pen in "Stars" in the windows, on the smoke coming out the chimney and on the maple leaves to give a little sparkle. A ribbon, some brads, copics and ink. I'll be using this at the Pioneer Log Village as a thank you card.
