Stamps Ahead

I found a great YouTube video by Sharon Bennett that uses paper napkins to create a card.  Here is my card inspired by her video. I purchased these beautiful paper napkins when I visited the house "Green Gables" of Anne of Green Gables fame in 2014. I always had in the back of my mind that I wanted to create cards with them. Here is a close up of the mounted napkin.  What made it sheen?  Of course, it was Versa Mark and clear embossing powder. Thank you, Sharon for your inspiration. I was impressed that it used the permanent adhesive sheet and I did not have to use glue or cling wrap.   I want to try with iridescent powder some time in the future. For now, I love my card. Thanks for looking, Margaret. :) “Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It's splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”  L.M.

Feeling nostalgic?  I visited Anne of Green Gables Museum, in Cavendish, Prince Edward Island (PEI), Canada on 21st June this  year. This layout inspired by Sketch 98 at Feeling Sketchy . I came across their blog as I was seeking inspiration for the multitude of photos I have from my recent holiday (vacation).  This little girl was visiting the same day as I did - she looked so peaceful as she posed for a photo under the tree outside the house that inspired Anne of Green Gables. I asked her mother for permission to photograph her.  The badges and hats I purchased in the museum shop and the journaling is on a card that one of the badges was on.  The paper I have used is from Project Life Collection -  Sunshine Collection.  I hand cut the banner from one of the pages in the range. I also did a companion page - this time using a postcard I purchased. Canada's smallest province features one of the country's largest tourist attractions....
