I finally sat down and made another card - starting back to school this week and still working on unpacking (very slowly mind you :p ) has had me rather running ragged and hitting the bed early every night. This morning I felt the need to make a card for a dear friends wife who had back surgery a little over a month ago and it didn't fare so well. She ended up with loss of feeling and quite a few other things but is slowly recovering a little at a time. A lot of positive thoughts and prayers have been sent her way but I thought a card might brighten her week. This card is pulling triple duty for challenges today:
Just Magnolia - Paper piecing - I stamped the image 3 times: 1 on white to color, 1 on the green PP and 1 on the blue PP and then I pieced her dress together. I started to do her shirt sleeves and boots but thought it was a bit much when I got to looking at it. I am very happy with how it turned out!
Sketch Saturday - A fun and funky sketch!
Cardalicious - 2 flowers, 1 ribbon and the color blue!
Hope you like!
Don't forget to stop by tomorrow for the reveal at The Cuttlebug Spot - this week I went a bit out of my box but I liked it!!!
Thanks for stoppin' by and happy scrappin'!!!
