July Smile
This is from my birthday trip to Grapevine, Texas. I just thought this was the best photo prop around and had to play a pin up girl pose. lol!!Below I finally figured out what I was doing wrong with embossing powders! Blow dryers do not produce enough heat to melt the powder. Hubby had a heating dryer and it worked on the powder. Eureka!! So, the centers of the flowers are embossed with Golden Pumpkin Blush.
Thank you for stopping by to see what the papers are saying today. I truly love your visits.

Stunning page Kathleen - you have put so much work into this. Thank you for sharing with us on ARTastic.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous LO with so many lovely details. Thank you for playing along with our challenge at ARTastic :)
ReplyDeleteHi, Kathleen! Well … first of all, this was kind of fun for me because … as I look out the window while I scrap, I periodically can see the Tarantula Train whizzing by behind the neighbors house across the street. It doesn't make much noise at all. I usually see it before I hear or feel it but I adore watching it! All the men on my dad's side worked on the railroad in Indiana. Well, enough of that! You are just too, too cute! Great job on the layout, chippys and challenges! Thanks for playing along with us at Creative Embellishments as well as The Color Room.
