Grateful for Friends

Happy, happy Sunday!  I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend.  I taught a fun class yesterday that I had called Spring has Sprung.......I am beginning to wonder about that one though.  LOL I really do have the nicest bunch of gals that come to my classes.  They are the best!   Late yesterday afternoon it snowed for a bit. Enough already!  Today is supposed to be sunny with some partial clouds.  Lets just go for the sunny part, okay?  The card I am sharing with you today is for last Friday's color challenge over at StampTV. Did you know that if you play along and upload a card to the gallery at StampTV you would have a chance to win some free stamps?  Good enough reason for me!   I really had fun putting this card together.  Everything just fell into place. 

I used some paper from the Cosmo Cricket Material Girl 6 x6 pad as it was perfect for the colors that Gina had chosen for us to use this week.  Love that!  I used one of my new Nesties dies too!  This die set is called Lattice Rectangles and I know I will use it over and over.  The sentiment is from the GKD Friends set.  I crocheted the flower using my flower pattern from this post.  If you make some flowers from my instructions, leave me a comment, I would love to see them.

One day at a time.....

Hello and happy Wednesday to you all, I hope you have the best of days today!



I am working today, but who can complain when they work in a stamp store?  Not me!  Yesterday the UPS man brought some boxes of goodies  (late in the afternoon) and I managed to get them open and take a peek, but that was about it.  So I will be busy today unpacking, pricing and finding a home for all of the luscious papers, embossing folders and other various embellies and toys that were ordered.



The card I am sharing today was from my Ribbons/Flowers class a few weeks ago.  I love the simplicity of this layout with a bit of complexity in the embellishments.  I knew when I started seeing all of these beautiful Prima flowers out in blogland that I had to have some.



The sentiment that I used on this card is from the Lincoln Quotes Wordsworth set from Rubber Soul.  The crochet ribbon is from May Arts and the punched border and leaves are from Martha Stewart. The beautiful papers used are from SEI.  You can get everything here if you need to fill a void in your stash-a-rooney.  :)



Hugs,
