  1. LOL I just had to laugh. I am a teacher and we stress about the end of school for a whole other reason. So much to get done. BUT I have to admit we celebrate it , too. LOL. We go into mid June so we still have 29 days to go.
    OMGosh I loVe your cards. Thanks for sharing them and your great video.
    I have 300+ embossing folders but those ones are a MUST HAVE.

The comments about the upcoming summer vacation and spending time with crazy hungry kids just totally hit home. that is hilarious how we share with so many other moms the same experiences. thanks for sharing your wonderful card and your funny commentary.

  4. Thanks for sharing this great video. I’ve never tried coloring dry embossed card stock before, but I think I have to give it a try.

  11. Fabulous designs, Laura and great backgrounds! Can’t wait to try this again as first time I attempted coloring my dry embossed background I didn’t have the ink blending tool. Your videos always crack me up besides being very helpful.
