CARD: Life is so sweet

April 25, 2009 by admin 23 Comments

I'm participating in a blog hop today with Outtathisfunk (don't you love the name?).  My post is below…  If you want  to start at the beginning of the hop please start at Thoughts With Chris.

My SIL had a medical scare last week – one of those freak things that happens and then you are so grateful that she is alright.  And it makes you take stock in what matters.  So this card is for her – hoping that she is taking it easy.

Because life is so sweet – it truly is!

Main image is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with:

  • B91 for background
  • YG03, shaded with N4 for carpet
  • V12 / V15 for dress
  • RV32 / RV34 for chair and ottoman
  • E55 / E57 / E77 for chocolates and flowers
  • Y21 / Y32 for flower centers
  • YR00 for skintone

Other supplies:

  • Patterned paper by CTMH
  • Glittered handmade paper (unknown)
  • Everyday collection by Little Yellow Bicycle
  • Flair button by American Crafts
  • Chocolate cardstock by CTMH
  • Sentiment from Kid Power stamp set by CTMH
  • Say it in Swirls Crystals, clear by Prima
  • Glimmer Mist in Irridescent Gold – splattered on heavilly for fun…after all a chocolate moment does have a bit of magic to it.

And now I'm sending you on to the next blog which is: Tara: http://purpleprincesstara.blogspot.com/

Have a lovely Saturday!

    I was just looking at the locations where you’re teaching Copic cert. Keeping my fingers crossed for a South Jersey/Philly location in the future. I’ll be there in a heartbeat!

Instagram post 2191587425254464406_392177945 I finished my #resin #necklace, which started with a @gelpress print in the bright #copper #bezel from @ranger_ink and ended up including a wing element that my Mother-in-law gave me over the Thanksgiving holiday from a broken necklace. Sheet music #collaged into the resin says 'Cresc. molto' which roughly translated means 'growing a lot' and has become my talisman and phrase for 2020. Do you have a word or phrase for the coming year that helps guide your goals and dreams?
