Succulent Garden Suite

I took a little break this week and finished up my TAXES!!  Whoo Hoo!  They are behind me and it's such a burden lifted.  

I know, I should be doing them every month, but I never seem to find the time to sit down and do it all!

So that means a couple weeks of "fitting it in" this time of year.  

But they are done now and I'm SO grateful!!

I have been crafting all along, but intermittently.  

Wanted to share this beautiful card I made for a class that was cancelled due to illness (not mine, but the hostess!)

I've seen some beautiful projects made with the Succulent Garden Suite and hadn't taken time to make anything (except use the designer series paper which I absolutely LOVE!!)

But I wanted to use it with the glimmer paper – which is a freebie with a $50 order during Sale-A-Bration 

If you haven't claimed this great pack of Glimmer Paper, I highly recommend it

It includes 4 pieces each of Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron and Sweet Sugarplum

I've had such fun using this paper

Can you see the scallop border of Mint Macaron Glimmer Paper?

I saw this "technique" on BJ Peters site and just had to try it.  

Can you guess what I used?  Yep – the Best Badge Punch!  

I added two little marks to my punch, so I could line it up perfectly.  I punched and then pulled it through and lined it up again!

I absolutely LOVE it when I our tools have more than one purpose!!
