Good Evening!

It has been quite a while since I had the opportunity to sit down and create a card. I've taken on a new job, and have been putting in a lot of hours. Today marked my first 14 hour day! Wow (lol)- I am sooo tired! However, I have to admit I was motivated by the white on white card contest which to me spells lace and romance! After playing a little, I felt this card was a perfect fit for the JustRite challenge, and I just had to post it before I crashed and fell asleep! For the contest rules, please go to JustRite Friday Challenge #109 - It's WOW!.

Card Recipe:

I created my card using Stampin Up Whisper White cardstock, and a satin white cardstock from Hobby Lobby. The dies I used were Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles, and Spellbinders Rose die. The stamp was JustRite stamp "Signs of Life". I chose "Your Friendship means the World to me". This card was made for a very special friend of mine who has been there for me thru thick and thin!
I also added some bling, half pearls in white, and some white stamens for added interest. I love how the JustRite stamp fit perfectly in the oval, allowing me room for the roses.

I hope you like this card!

Thinking of You!

Welcome to my garden of paper petals. Nothing makes happier than giving a card to someone who treasures it. A friend of mine loves the color purple, so for her birthday, I made her a card with a large purple mum as the center, with light colored purple daisies, some dark purple flowers for depth, and some baby's breath as filler. My friend just loved the card, and has it showcased in a shadow box from Michael's. She couldn't wait to show me what she had done. Imagine my surprise when I walked into her family room, and there on the wall was my card hanging up on the wall. It looks beautiful! I hope you all enjoy it!

Victorian Garden with Purple Clematis

This is a card that I made using more of a garden theme with the white trellis from Cheery Lynn (available at Joan's Gardens), and the beautiful Celtic heart (also from Cheery Lynn, and available at Joans Gardens) in the center symbolizing love. My dad grew purple clematis in our yard when I was growing up, and I always thought they were magical. Now when I look at them, I remember my dad with much love. Unfortunately you can't see the shading in the middle of these petals, it is a subtle shade of violet.
