Happy First Monday of 2021! Has it shaped up to a better Monday for you? For me it is the same as any other Monday. My alarm went off 4 times and I still didn’t want to get up! However, since Hubby has to work, I have to get up and work as well. A lot has gotten accomplished already today in my office. I’ve sent out Smiles to friends new and old, I put together a lesson plan for the month, worked on Facebook posts, drove my son to work, and even broke out the camera today for some photography practice. Next, once I finish this post I will work on my Vision Board for 2021. It should have been done already, but it has been hard to narrow down my ONE WORD for the year. Last year’s WORD was FOCUS. I had never imagined that COVID-19 would come and help me fulfill my Vision for 2020.
Now for Monday’s Project
This week I will be focusing on the Dandelion Wishes set. This beautiful set includes 3 dandelion stamps and 3 sentiments.
Today’s project is a Beginner Card with straight on stamping using a mask.


The images are stamped straight on to the card base. This can be a little bit scary, but we can always hide our mistakes with layers!
Masking on a card can be as simple as this! This is a straight line layer. I covered the card base with a large Post-It Note and stamped my images over the card base and the Post-It. When you take the Post-It off, you are left with a clean line (and hopefully straight!).

For card #2 instead of using the cord, I opted for bling, using the rhinestones.


These cute cards took less than 5 minutes to make.
Make sure to come back tomorrow to see the next project using this charming set!
