Withdrawals.
The camera that I got for Christmas this year had to go back for warranty repair. The LCD screen has a blob of missing pixels that is continuing to grow. I am already going through withdrawals. I love the camera. It’s a Canon PowerShot. This happens to be the first time I have ever had to send back any electronic for warranty repair. I miss my camera! But since I had to part with it, I dug out the old Sony Cybershot to share this with you today.
I was just playing around with an idea and it ended up so much different than the original idea in my head. I was playing around with the Rock-N-Roll technique for the lily pad. It’s Certainly Celery and Sahara Sand. My original idea for this was definitely more Andy Warhol but I will attempt again later.
hoppy hello elements: Papertrey Ink Pond Life and Polka Dot Basics stamp sets, Stampin’ Up Wild Wasabi and Not Quite Navy ink and cardstock, Sahara Sand ink and American Crafts ribbon.

I use a sony cybershot for my quick picks when I’m out and about, it is a great camera I absolutely love it. As for my more sophisticated camera I use a Sony Alpha. What can I say, I’ve been converted to a Sony girl. I agree with you though Canon’s are nice and it isn’t great to have to be without the camera that you love.

I really love the dots on the side of the card, they add the perfect touch. I really need to use this set, it’s been sitting uninked since I got it

Oh my gosh I feel your pain! lol I would freak out if my camera had to go into the shop. It is sort of stuck to my hand. lol
With a 2 year old grandaughter around I take a bunch of photos. And for the nursery I take plant/flower photos for our pos system, so you can imagine I have taken a gazillion since all the summer flowers have started blooming!
Totally adorable card, my creations never seem to turn out like I envision them! lol but yours are always right on the mark!!
