Happy Day! Happy Day! I finally put together a card I was satisfied with last night. I LOVE this marbled paper from Paper Mojo. They call it: Crepaldi Marbled Paper-Blue Waved Git-Gel. It is part of a bunch of 5x8 inch samples I bought from them a few weeks ago. It's really more impressive in real life. Had to drag out my PB Sun Fire die because it's been making grumbling noises again. It seems to have a strong need to be brought out and used. It has to realize that I don't plan to use it for EVERY card I make. But it seemed to make a good point on this gorgeous paper. I hate to even put anything on these beautiful papers. I love the full in your face effect they have...on me anyway. I tried my focus piece on a variety of colored backgrounds and found this blue seemed to suit it the best. I am becoming aware that I have a paper obsession. I'm not going to fight it. I may have to join POA (Paper Obsession Anonymous) somewhere down the line. But at this moment in time I can handle it. May have to sell a few pieces of furniture to satisfy my paper cravings. (I know the first piece to go is going to be our recliner that I have to keep stuffing polyester fiberfill in to keep it's pillowy headrest pillowy. Hate wrestling with that stuff always getting stuck in the zipper.) But you have to sacrifice for your priorities! Right?

Mrs. Ellen, because of you, I had to go and order that die. I didn't order mojo yet, but I will. I'll take your advice and order the smaller sized paper. When I become a millionaire ....
