April 2011 Release Day 2: A Special Lady

Welcome back for Day 2 of the Wplus9 April Release. Today we are all taking another look at A Special Lady. I've decided to switch things up a little here and show you more with this stamp set through a video.

Here's the card we'll be making today.

Watch below or watch at You Tube.

In hindsight, I think the tone-on-tone did actually show up on video better. Oh well, I'm learning. ;o)

Want a chance to win A Special Lady? Leave me a comment by 11:59 PM EST March 29th yesterday's post and again here to double your odds. I'll pick a random winner from both days of comments to win A Special Lady. All winners will be posted here.

The design team has more for you today as well.

I loved, loved the video. You are so fun to listen to and your skills are out-of-this-world. Someday, we need to meet.

Dawn, you are inspiring! I love your cards. I'm getting a little teary looking over the design team's blogs. (Late nights make me sentimental. You know why.)

P.S. I haven't cut my finger with an inkpad yet but I do get a lot of cuts and burns in the kitchen and that too with things nobody can think of :D

This is a wonderful set. Another good use for the Wife is for those who create for Operation Write Home! It's perfect for those deployed writing and sending cards home to their spouses! This is a fabulous card! Love the new frame and doily added a great touch!

I love the look of this card. The idea of adding the copic to make the flowers pop was amazing. I also love the idea of using the Wilton doilies. I will definitely be getting me some of those later in the week.
