RE-UPLOAD Eclipse Card for the Eclipse!
Channel: Catherine PaperArt
Date: 2024-04-07

Today's card uses the Eclipse technique, or a variation of that, and I used cutting dies that I bought from Amazon and that I have in my stash - nothing fancy, no name brands.  This was an extremely fast card to put together!  I Googled and printed the earth image for the eclipse - it's in the Public Domain.  It shows the Path of Totality - I decided to leave that on the card even though it's barely legible (to me anyway).  I die cut and inked up my components, chose sentiments and, viola!  A quick variation of an Eclipse card - for an eclipse that will pass very quickly!Do you think you'll be able to view the eclipse?  Do you have special viewing glasses?  Some states have issued warnings and have called up the National Guard saying they expect... heavy traffic...  Okay, well here in Boston, we'll be lucky if we have a clear day to see it.  I hope we do though, as I've always been interested in the heavens, the celestial cosmos.  In the words of Nikola Tesla:  "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration."  I do!  I want to know those secrets!!!
