THANKS

Better late than never, right?

This is a card I just sent out to Cut Cardstock owner Cindy. I hope she knows how grateful I am for all her generosity while doing my term for her Cut Cardstock Design Team.

Thanks

A bit of info about the card:
But, I can't remember the size, hehe. Mind is truly gone. I do know I used Curious Metallic for the flowers and leaves: Super Gold, Violette, Mandarin and Botanic. Super pretty and thick cardstock. The flowers and leaves were cut using a Sizzix Thinlit die from Jen Long (660367) and the sentiment (thanks) is from Paper Smooches (J2D056). I used the 130# Classic Crest Recycled for the card base.
In case you like the patterned paper used: Memorandum from Pink Paisley.

I love it and I hope I can express my gratitude with this lovely handmade with love card.
I also hope you like it too and inspire you maybe for a Mother's Day Card.
Talking about Mother's Day I wish you have a perfect day with your loved ones.

Thanks for stopping by.

PAPER SMOOCHES!!

I had entered a Paper Smooches giveaway (you know how much I like their dies because all they need is one pass through your manual die cutter, and I just love that plus their prices are so very affordable) and I won. Yay for me!!

It indeed brightens my day. Kim is so sweet and she kept in touch. She even emailed me from her honeymoon to apologize for a bit of delay in shipping. Who does that anymore? and from her honeymoon, WOW! this kind of gestures is what really shows what we are made of, right? I was truly appreciative and I have to give high kuddos to this girl.
Thank you, Miss Kim, you are such a sweetheart!!!

Anyways, here is what I picked because I love their font and this way I have all the letters handy for my projects.

Well, I can't wait to start blogging for good again. 

I have a procedure scheduled for May 9th and it will be the beginning of a few more but I am still around and still loving paper. So...counting on God who has kept me sane and strong while on this journey, I will be back. 

Hang in there my friends and Thank you so very much to all who have kept in touch. 

I love you all.

PLAYING ALONG WITH CHALLENGES

while browsing fb i saw joy clair is having its first monthly challenge
http://joyclair.typepad.com/blog/2016/02/monthly-challenge.html
and why not to join them since they are a fabulous group.

this is my submission.

I love to have you in my life

3.5" x 5.75"

the greetings on this card are from joy clair stamps: the i love is from hugs and smiles, the to have you in my life is from thank you for everything and the tiny outlined hearts are from wedding wishes. 

the girl and the mailbox is a stamp set from mft and is called pure innocence. i purchased it used from one of their designers.

the blue textured strip was done with another punch negative and some blue texture paste (already colored) and i added some wet embossing to all the hearts. the small yellow flowers are from io. i used the same ones on this halloween haunted village, they are super cute and they have come in handy more than once. the piercing was done with a thin die from paper smooches. i used that same die on this new year's day watercolor background card. 

the challenge page has been linked in case you want to play along.

take care and thanks for stopping by.
