It Must Be My Lucky Day!

In the mail this weekend was a package of goodies from Linda who has been hosting some monthly swaps at A Swap for All Seasons.  Every month a lucky someone wins a prize.  I was the July winner!  Look at the fabulous things that were sent my way.  Thank you Linda!

Gelato Time

For awhile I have been seeing people creating things using Gelato Colors.   After reading up on them and a few YouTube videos later, I decided I had to have some.  As suggested by some online crafters I purchased Gel Sticks for ages 5 and up.  Gelato Colors and Gel Sticks about the same.  They are made by the same company and are about identical to the more expensive Gelato Colors.

My first simple project was this tag.  There are a couple 'oops' on this tag but it already found its way onto a bag of goodies I brought to a friend in the hospital.  The background color was made using the Gel Sticks. These are simple and fun to play with.  There is a million different ways to use these little gems and I hope to learn some and try a few.

The Color Purple

My SFAS send-to partner was Marie at Spun by Me.   Marie is a sweet and talented gal and we have swapped a couple times in the past.   This is the card and tag I made for her.
