Journey Sketch # 24

Good Morning Ladies,
It sounds like maybe it rained last night, I think I can hear the car tires running on wet roads. The weather has been so crazy I just want it to be warm at least a little bit.
The card for today is Journey Sketch # 24
 The sketch was to cut a die shape out of the top layer of the card. I used the FSJ Star Dom set to make my cut. The images and sentiment was created using the Dude Ranch stamp set. A background was created using the star from that set. The boots were popped up.
This is the inside of the card repeating the theme on the outside of the card.
Happy Scraps,

Fun Stampers Journey Treat Box

Good Morning Ladies,
It's still cold out. I am waiting for the warm.
I am still working with the March Bloom Box
The project for today is Fun Stampers Journey Treat Box
I love the FSJ treat boxes. A great platform for any stamp set. The slices of wood from the March Bloom Box A Great Adventure were used as stumps on this box for the critters from the FSJ creature comforts to sit on. The firewood is also from the creature comforts set. Paper and ribbon create the fire for the campfire. The little cream flower are also from FSJ.

Fun Stampers Journey March Bloom Box

Good Morning Ladies,
I was up early this morning making a card hoping I am getting back into the swing of things.
The card for today is Fun Stampers Journey March Bloom Box
What a super fun bloom box. The images and sentiment were embossed in gold. I then went to work with my pan pastels. A couple of browns for the bottom and a couple of  blues and a purple for the night sky. I added extra brown at the base of the tree to create a shadow from all of those stars. If you like this bloom box it can still be had. Just message me and I will show you how to get it.
Happy Scraps,
