Celebrate
Boy it has been a long week……for me any way. My brakes when out on my mini van Wednesday afternoon with no warning what so ever….talk about scary!! I had an hour break at work Wednesday afternoon so I thought I would run up to Pearl arts and crafts and pick up the gamsol they finally got in. They had called the week before and told me it was in. Well on my way up there is when the brakes went out. I had to have it towed to the house the next day after work. Then today I ran around (using hubby’s truck) getting all the parts for my hubby to fix them for me tomorrow. I finally had some stamp room time around 3:00 today. When ever I’ve been away from stamping for a few days it seems like it takes forever for me to get the mojo going. I’ll walk in my stamp room and say to myself where to being….what will I make, what colors, what layout. I decided to check out the Limited Supplies challenge over on Splitcoast. Well today was to use leftovers, scraps of card stock, ribbon, designer paper….you get the idea. So this is the card I came up with base on the challenge.
I used Basic Gray card stock as my base, cut to 5.25 x 5.25 and some scraps of black card stock I had cut for something else and never used, also the Basic Grey designer paper Scarlet’s Letter. The “Celebrate” was already stamped on the basic gray strip so I used that. I added the prima flowers and the decorative brad with a small piece of scrap ribbon. I used 3-D red paint on the brad and flower stamen to add some color pop. This is a pretty simple card, but it felt good to make something with all the stress I’ve had this week. Thanks for stopping by, I have the next couple of days off so I’m hoping to get some more stamp time in so stop back by!!
