Hi Everyone!

Wow what a ride!  Did you have a wonderful time exploring all the blogs on the Royal Blog Tour?  I know I did.  I have a whole list of new blogs to visit and ideas to try. I had a record number of visitors and my total visits is now over 20,000!  How exciting is that!

I’d like to thank everyone that came to visit me and for all the wonderful comments.  It was so nice to read them all.  I will be drawing for the Blog Candy Winners later and post that tomorrow.  If you asked me questions I will be working on replies to those also.  Thanks again!

I am working on my post of the Kaleidoscope card tutorial and it will be up later today – it is a long post with lots of pictures so it is taking a bit longer.   For right now I want to show you the card that I created (and then took down because the colors were so wrong) that matched the scrapbook page.  I took a new picture and now it looks like Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip.  Chocolate Chip is the base of the card which is a little hard to see in the picture.  The Tempting Turquoise layer is on top and scallop punched on one side.  I love these colors together!

The girls coming to my scrapbook class tonight will be making the scrapbook pages that I showed as part of the tour.  I am finishing up the prep-work for that class.  And still working on my convention swaps.  I’ll be back later with the tutorial for you.  Have a great day!
