Remember back when ?? I mentioned there was  something big maybe going to happen ?  Well today is the day .. Thank you Dawn AKA Dawn Mercedes on SCS  she was very persistent at  nominating my  tutorial for  the shadowbox  to Beth for the TLC  challenge on Mondays Well today is the day YAHOO!  Thank you  Dawn for  your encouragement  it was sooo awesome.. Thank you Beth  for  adding  my tutorial to  your  awesome list on Mondays .. Truly  Dawns excitement  over my tutorial and adding my blog  site  tutorial on my shadow box in her signature line until it got on Beth’s list of TLC challenges This  in itself is  such an Honor..I think Dawn aka Dawn Mercedes  May be my  very 1st groupie 🙂 OH and lets not forget  her mom too 🙂 ( sending kisses to both of you ) But  Seriously if this is how  movie stars  feel  This is way to cool .. Dawn  posted the Great news to me via  email  through SCS  … Thank you  Dawn your such a sweetie pie .. Ok so you all  want to see this write up HERE is the link..

Yesterday I also added a sidebar for  the quick links  to  my  tutorials on my blog  on the left hand side . The only thing is that once you click the  tutorial  you will have to scroll up wards to view .Thank you all for  your comments  this weekend on my never ending card ..Renee had mention  about a flyer  she received  in the mail  just like the never ending card , I also remember  that  I got  one  from I think Ford company   that was never  ending  advertisement .. I really love this card ..

Ok onto today card post .. I was inspired from Mary Andersons card she posted  a few days ago on January 26th   using her  Embossing paste .. Funny I also had some of this   embossing paste from 2 1/2 years ago( Really I did already have it )   when I attended a Auntie Amy’s  convention in Novi MI ,  and I thought for sure it would have been all dried up .. NOPE,  just as great as when I bought it ..YAHOO! Mine is not translucent as Marys , Mine is white  but you can still order both  HERE mine cost only $7.25  2 1/2 years ago but now dream weavers sell it for 8.00.. Great stuff..  I used pixie pink CS along with the Bodacious  Brass   template from SU!  the swirls and dots seem to get crazy the more I did .. It started out with  just 2 swirls and  dots BUT then it  got carried away  and seemed to look pretty cool  with the entire BG covered in them   The saying is from a stamp I got at meijers in the 70% off pile  awhile ago ..  seemed to fit this card perfectly  if KWIM?  Saying"Inspiration is more important  than Knowledge" using the embossing paste is  very simple .. The hardest part is waiting for it to dry .Lay your  brass template  down onto your CS and  tape in place  with  removable tape  then apply the  embossing paste  over top of the image  of your brass  embossing template  smoothing out as you go once you cover your image evenly  you lift off your brass template and TA-DA   the  embossed  image appears .. let dry for at least 45 Min’s .. I also add  dazzling diamonds to my image  right after I lifted the template off .. Gotta love that  glitter. Pretty simple and so fun! Make sure you  pick up the knife that Dream weaver sells also  It looks to me like a small Spackle knife  BUT they call it DPK Palette knife for $4.00   Thats  easy enough huh?  YUP thats me being an enabler this morning .. sorry

1 More thing before I go  I wanted to share with you  a awesome song by Micheal W Smith ..  everything we go through in our life  Remember OUR  GOD is  worthy of our worship and HE is the same Yesterday, Today and tomorrow .

Until later … Happy Stampin!!
