Thanks Jar.

I feel the need to play the lottery so I can win big and stay home all day and soak up the Cameo goodness:)  These tags happen to be my first project with the Cameo {5th time is a charm}.  After several bumps I'm slowly getting the hang of it.

Before I chat about today's card I want to let you know that there were several people that inspired it but it started HERE.  Linda from Catered Crop, if you don't follow her, once you pop over there, I guarantee you will now.  She is a wonderful Paper Artist and when I read THIS post in particular, it hit me several ways....the story....Vera's card drive....and last but not least, her gorgeous project.

Introducing my first Cameo card:


I know, big shocker that it is a mason jar.  I had so much fun putting this together and I assure you, my work top showed it...there was paper e v e r y w h e r e...

I also wanted to give a big shout out to my bloggie friend Sherry.  She has been so supportive of me and my Cameo journey:)  I tend to be a procrastinator...so she'd send me encouraging emails asking if I cracked open my box yet or not....If I needed any help....Thanks so much Sherry, I really appreciate your patience with me!!!!!!!

Needless to say, I'm hooked.

This particular card uses some older Crate paper Collections...I managed to do a smidge of stamping and included a hijacked SRM sentiment {hijacked as I cropped it from it's original format}.  See that wonderful twine with the metallic thread?  Oh my goodness...I need to seriously stock up on that stuff!!!!  That was just a small part of a wonderful RAK from thee JJ Bolten!

The Paper Crafting Community on Facebook so rocks!  I have been doing Cameo posts and everybody is so helpful...I love this community.
