What A Way To Bring In The New Year

Happy New Year to everyone!!! I hope you are enjoying today as much as I have.  My family brought in the new year with family and friends--no better way to celebrate another year.  I can not believe how fast time is flying.  While in the last year I made a change on the work front to be at home with my family more I am still not getting as many blog posting done as I would like--maybe this should be a new years resolution. However--we all know what usually happens to those.

I went to Kansas City the other day to meet up with my best friend Ang for a scrappin evening and I purchased up some Art Parts that I could not wait to use.  I used a large flourish a base and two of the small residences along with a vintage ruler I found at a antique store a few months ago.  I colored all of the Art Parts with Rangers Archival Ink and Tim Holtz Distress Ink.  I stamped some of Wendy Vecchi's images on some grungeboard to create some flowers to create a scene on the flourish board.  Instead of using her flower for one of the flowers, I used some of Tim Holtz's Tissue Wrap.  For the second flower, I layered tissue tape on grungeboard and painted it with Rangers paint dabbers then stamped the flower image on it.
