Fuschia & hummer
My goodness Ive had a great mother’s day so far, my son and and girlfriend had some old 1971 computer art I created in College, framed, what a surprise gift! My other son in Florida called but I’ve missed his call twice this morning. However this card making isn’t going so well. The Less is More challenge is use 3 stamps and altho i have millions of stamps i decided to digi and have less of them that 3 go together. This card uses the fuchsia from Waxfurit company, a hummingbird from Squigglyfly (which puts it into the cCASual fridy challenge too. The a sentiment from Digiditto when i finally finished the card, my printer printed 1/4 of the way and stopped 3 times… after going shopping buying then adding ink it finished.
