It's Dream Scheme Thursday

Well after several tries, I succeeded in deleting over 2000 pictures on my camera (NOT ON PURPOSE)and not being able to upload my pictures. Tried a different camera..... now I just need to find someone to see if they can recover my pictures.

Anyway....still can't get them to load. Will keep trying. Did take a peek at the other design team sites and there are some really beautiful cards. Will keep trying until I get my card posted.

Hello...........
I'm a bit behind. I have noticed that with the weather getting colder, it takes things a bit longer to dry!!

This week we have a color theme...or should I say a neutral theme.

Black & White

(Unfortunately I am having digital difficulty, PLEASE check back this evening)

I really like the dramatic effect black and white against each other creates. As soon as I heard this was the challenge for the week, I thought of a technique Lynell of Dreamweaver stencils taught some time ago.

Using the same stencil you paste with two different colors of paste on two different pieces of paper. Then when dry, cut them both in half and match the left side of the first color to the right side of the other color. Kinda confusing to explain, but easy once you see the sample.

It looks great with the metallic pastes. Try black paste on copper paper, then copper paste on black paper. Create the same look of my card but using the metallics.

Exciting news!! There is a call out for new Dream Team members. Anyone interested check out the link for the DT call on the Dream It Up! blog: http://dreamweaverstencils.blogspot.com/2011/11/dreaming-of-being-on-dream-team-bring.html
