Believe it or not, I stamped AGAIN! I'm trying to work on challenges and having fun again. It seems to be working too. Yay! I appreciate those of you who have taken the time to leave encouraging comments or sent emails. I appreciate it so, so much. I also have some news to share! :) I was chosen as a display stamper for Convention 2013. I got the email yesterday evening and am so excited...and nervous. I won't get to go to Convention to see them in person, but my friends are under strict orders to take lots of pictures.
Now on to the card... I combined the fun new sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday with the awesome colors at Dynamic Duos.
I actually like this one. :) I don't normally say that, but I think the flower from Blooming with Kindness just makes me happy. It's just so pretty! I added a cute little butterfly from Papillion Potpourri and a sentiment from Fabulous Phrases. Three great sets are bound to make a lovely card aren't they?
Stamps: Fabulous Phrases, Blooming with Kindness, Papillion Potpourri
Ink: Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie
Paper: Bashful Blue, Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Brights DSP stack, misc. retired Bashful Blue DSP
Accessories: Bashful Blue 3/8 Taffeta ribbon, Basic Pearls
Tools: Big Shot, Scallop Circles #2 die, 3 inch circle die, Scallop Border punch, Petite Butterfly punch
Someone has outgrown their mat. lol I don't know why she wanted to get on it yesterday, but it was cute. We've had a much better day today thank goodness. She was up crying for over an hour at 3am last night though. I took her to the doctor today just to make sure nothing was wrong. She's fine, so no clue what's causing her to be so fussy. Hopefully it goes away and soon!!!! We are now on week two of cloth diapers and still learning by trial and error about those. A few more kinks to work out and I'll be 100% in love. I'm at about 93% now. ;)
Be sure to come back tomorrow for a new card for Freshly Made Sketches!
Really pretty. I love this flower and the mix of papers. Thanks for joining us at Dynamic Duos.
ReplyDeleteThis card is fabulous! So pretty. Great job with the colors!
ReplyDeleteAwesome card, Rita! And CONGRATS on making Display Stamper! I knew you'd be chosen! I'm thinking that retired DSP is Delicate Dots form SAB a few years ago....
