I have been waiting for this book to be released for at least 5 weeks! The title of this book is:
Card Design rubber stamping with colored pencils and watercolors. The Author of this book is Dave Brethauer. If you have never heard of him then surf on over to his blog. You will not be disappointed.
I have had my nose in this book most of the night which is why I have not designed a card. The visuals are beautiful and the instructions are very easy to follow. If you love coloring cards I think you will love this book as much as I am loving it. :)
After my PT today I stopped off at Stamping Memories. I chatted with Liz and Bette, looked at the cards made that they will be teaching in classes for October and did a little shopping of course. Did I mention that you can pick up a copy of the Card Design book there? ;) I purchased another set of Ciao Copics, picked up some designer papers and then decided it was time for me to leave. :) On my way home I stopped off at Dunkins and got a large coffee. I had a very easy and a very pleasant day and I hope that all of you did too. Smile. :)
I am so jealous. I want that book so bad. I love Dave his Memory Box stamps, paper, and note cards. You are so lucky Mary. And stop teasing me about Dunkin Donuts coffee. We have Starbucks and Caribou out my way. I love DD coffee! You always write such sweet updates and thanks Mary for making all your fans SMILE. You are da bomb!! OK...I will forgive you with NO card for Wed. but does that mean we get two cards on Thurs? Yes sir re BOB!!! Smile now Mary!!
