As most of you know March is National Craft month and that means lots of great giveaways...so here is the first one I've come across...I'll post more as the month progresses.
I used a Sizzix brass stencil for the "Thinking of You" pop dot that over a piece of mauve card stock that I ran through my sizzix die machine using the Tim Holtz Ornate folders. I stamped a border stamp along the right side just to set everything off. Topped it off with a flower. Below shows the coordinating envelope.
This is the card for March and the theme was "Sympathy" believe it or not this card came together much faster than above...had a dickens of a time putting that one together...nothing went well but this one......what can I say...it's so vintage looking.
The stamp I used was a $1.00 stamp from Mike's. I used the Spellbinders die Labels One for the background piece and the stamped image one. I than colored the rose in a soft pink and the corner tear drops in a blushing blue, using my H2O's by LuminartThe paper is from a K & Company double sided stack by Amy Butler. I picked it up at TJ Max for $3.99. I than found some shear gold lacy looking ribbon that I had and never used. It fits perfect for this card.
This card I made for my son using my new Tim Holtz stamp set.
So, that's what I've been working on the last couple of days.
She woke up as soon as I took the picture....she loves my pink chair...or should I say her pink chair...tee hee!
Enjoy your Sunday evening♥Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing
could dampen her excitement – not even her parent's nasty divorce.
Her mother had found the PERFECT dress to wear, and
would be the best-dressed mother-of-the- bride ever!
A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her
father's new, young wife had bought
the exact same dress as her mother!
Jennifer asked her father's new young wife to exchange
it, but she refused. "Absolutely not! I look like a million bucks in
this dress, and I'm wearing it," she replied.
Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, ''Never
mind sweetheart. I'll get another
dress. After all, it's your special day.''
A few days later, they went shopping, and did find
another gorgeous dress for her mother.
When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her
mother, ''Aren't you going to
return the other dress? You really don't have another occasion
where you could wear it."
Her mother just smiled and replied, ''Of course I do,
dear.....I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night
BEFORE the wedding.''
Oh the virtue of a wise woman.....gotta ♥ it!
