Cathy's this week's WTUI hostess and is looking for One Layer cards!
This sweet fairy was waiting in my stash. I colored the image and masked the image and managed to spill a big blob of masking fluid on the card. Thought I waited long enough for it to dry and rubbed it off along with the paper underneath! I stamped ferns along the bottom and a friendship text on the top. Rubbed off the dry masking fluid from the fairy image. Blended some extra green at the base and some walnut stain on the top. Now to cover up my rough spot. I had just received a card from Susan (One4Joy) and she wrapped some die cuts with pretty butterfly washi tape. They were the perfect thing to cover up the rough spot. I finished it off with a sentiment die cut from kraft and shadowed with black. TFL

Wow! Just the perfect example of the saying, "There are no mistakes in stamping, only reasons for embellishment!" I never would have known, but glad you told us, because we all have days like that! It's beautiful!

Now see? If you hadn't dropped a blob, you wouldn't have thought to use that washi from Susan. Worked out great!

What did Winston Churchill say???? What you did....never ever give up. And you created a beauty by not giving up. I love it when a CAS card doesn't look CAS.
