FS98 - Paula's Church


This is just a quick little post today because I have to finish up some handmade Christmas presents and clean my house for company in a few days. Who am I kidding? I need to start making some hand made Christmas presents! Ack!



I made this card this morning to honor today's Featured Stamper Paula Tracy :) I couldn't resist because I love and admire her style so much! She is the queen of Prisma Color Pencils!!! I took the cowardly way out and brought out my watercolouring because my Prisma skills are less than stellar! lol

I chose this card of Paula's and put on my Our Daily Bread Designs Worship the Lord Christmas Church because I don't own any Bella's yet. I went with a vintage feel and made the button from scratch! Yep, that there is a shrink plastic button made to coordinate with my card :) I will be posting a tutorial on how to make them as soon as I have a free moment so stay tuned for that.



Now, wish me luck as I camp out in my craft studio until I gidder' done!...Hopefully I will be able to re-surface soon! :)

Gorgeous card, Kim. Where do you get your shrink plastic? I bought some at M's, but it's white & I noticed yours is a pretty frosty finish. I'd rather have that :)
