It's been a while since my last post - there are so many things I am taking care of right now - so my crafting time happens in short time frames.
This 8x8 canvas is for Lindy's Stamp Gang May challenge. First let me say that I was so inspired by Elena Zemlyanskya's ( a Design Team member for Lindy's Stamp Gang) - that I just had to try one for myself. If you click on her name - it will take you to her blog. If you click on this link - it will take you to Elena's canvas on Lindy's Stamp Gang blog and a video tutorial.
My canvas is not nearly as lovely as Elena's - and I think I might have overloaded it - but it was quite fun. I used every single color of the month and each embossing powder from the Mega Set this month. I used tons of old flowers and even some foam flowers and about 8 metal pieces and a couple of tab tops too!
