Hey my Crafty Freinds,

I have been so behind on blogging, I have not had a post in over a MONTH!

I recently started instructing the EK Success: S.D.U. Scrapbook Design and You classes at Michael's Craft Stores. With this new ExCiTiNg endeavor I have not had time to create in my home most of my efforts are in the store.

My favorite blogs have not taken a break while I was away and I know I missed out of some fabulous challenges. YEs, But today I return for some fun! 

Check these out. 

 

I am in L-O-V-E with using felt right now.  So.... the {: embellish :} challenge was perfect for me and the Kazan's Sketch #63 Is a fabulous sketch!

I used some Staz-on to stamp of the red felt to create this plush sofa and on the hard wear for the sentiment.  I layered my copic colored WTG-Well Read image in her favorite cozy spot, Et Voila!

I also de-bossed some card stock with a swiss-dot pattern for the floor.

I thought it looked like a real floor.
