My name is Lucy. I met Julie on a craft site. We were both kind of starting out at the same time.
I haven't had the chance to meet Julie in person, but I can tell, she's a very sweet, energetic and giving person. I know that we would get along very well if we ever do meet! Congratulations to Julie in her success as a blogger and crafter on multiple design teams!
This is for you, Julie.

Finding some crafty mojo

I finally found some crafty mojo! I am hoping it stays around.
I wanted to participate in a few challenges: Virginia's View Challenge: All Things Embossed, Die Cuttin Divas: Welcome Spring, Fusion Card Challenge: Floral Fusion (I used the sketch)

Edit: I'm also linking this to My Creative Time-Designer Challenge and used the colors for inspiration.

Here's my take

Products: Prima All About Me 6x6 paper, Little Yellow Bicycle paper (pink heart), Recollections white and kraft card stock, My Creative Time Dies: Stitched Journal die, Hello Frame dies, Heart 2 Heart Love Frame dies, TH Distress Emboss Ink, American Crafts Zing White Emboss powder, Ranger Glossy Accents and Multi Medium Matte, TH Stamper's Anonymous cling stamp-Saying Stuff, Thermo-Web foam squares, Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear sequins in 6mm and 4mm and some free ribbon that came with an Ellen Hutson order.
