I am so excited! I have finished my Christmas shopping, I am done with school until next month, and I have all of my Hello Thursday projects done PLUS lots of extra projects made! This means that I can relax a little bit this week since my son is out of school next week. I read an entire book today( a really funny Chelsea Handler book) and just might read another one today! Not too mention today is Papertrey Ink's new release day! It just doesn't get much better for me! I am in such a good mood!
Ok, I loved making the card I posted yesterday so much that I made another that is exactly the same just with a different color scheme. I never do this, but I thought it would be fun. Songbird is such a great cartridge!

This card is so pretty. I love your color combination.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors on this one. Your doodling and coloring take the card from pretty to sensational. Enjoy your week; glad you have a little reprieve.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for Hello Thursday! :)
ReplyDeleteEven though it is the same as yesterday, it looks different because of the colors! I love that when I make two or more of the same kind of cards - color can make all the difference! I love the yellow behind the "O".
ReplyDeleteMany blessings, Donna

I don't think I would've recognized that this was the same card as yesterday if you hadn't told us...the different colors make it look totally different. I do love that stamp! Enjoy your break!
ReplyDeleteLove the different color combinations!!!

Love the shading. It really sets off the sentiment
ReplyDeleteAnd look how the ribbon goes perfectly with the card and all the little dashes on the card goes with the ribbon. Nice.
ReplyDeleteSimple but elegant and great colors, too! Since I don't have that cartridge I will have to search my cartridges to find something similar.
ReplyDeleteQuestion for all,,,,,,,, what adhesive do you use? I came across this one and was wondering if it was a good tape to use. OMC Green Glue Glider PRO. Anyone ever use it? It is similar to the ATG Gun but cheaper but sometimes cheaper isn't better.
Great card. I love the softness of it.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card, and the "glow" effect you created with the ink is perfect! I also love the colors and papers - simply beautiful.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty card, love the colour scheme and the 'glow' really is effective.

ReplyDeleteWait . . . I just 'thought' about ordering this yesterday, now I've got to go back! Love seeing projects, and I also do do-overs with new colors/papers!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the Hello Thursday projects...I think this is my fav bunch of releases of all time!!!
