Theme Thursday - Something New!



Happy New Year 2009! Just a turn of a page and we have a brand new start of a year! Theme Thursday's theme for this week's challenge is "Something New." We are to use something new, either a new technique, a new stamp, anything new for us. I have chosen my new Stampendous butterfly stamp that my sister gave me along with my new Caran d'ache water-soluble crayons. The blue and purple background is by Mary Gilmour. It is a double stamped background I received in a swap. I can see I need more practice using the crayons, but I anticipate many hours of fun trying to perfect a technique.
