Hello Everyone -
I know! Lilacs are for summer time...Let's just say I am day dreaming! lol Actually, this is a card for my grandmother. She turned 86 on Saturday and as always, I am late in sending out a card!
A little health update on me... I am doing much better. Each day I feel a little less pain. That is such a blessing! I am experiencing some nausea today, but I think it was more from something I ate and lack of sleep last night than anything else. I wasn't feeling well last night either...but compared to a week ago, I am feeling better. :)
| Anyways, about my card!!! Congratulations to Lisa being chosen as the Featured Stamper on Splitcoast Stampers today!! She has such a wonderful gallery filled with so many great projects! I chose this one - The things I changed are: 1. The colors and stamps 2. Instead of a bow, I added lace and words 3. I added an additional layer with the Spellbinders. This card also used the Technique Junkie Newsletter and the Framed Nesties Window. |
