Good morning everyone and Happy Sunday!
Can you believe it is February already, I for one am happy it’s here as it means spring is just that much closer!!
Yesterday morning I watched the live streaming on Leadership. Not only did I want to see the onstage demonstrations but the Keynote Speaker was Jason Wright, the author of The Wednesday Letters. This man was amazing to hear, I am not ashamed to say he brought me to tears on more than one occasion during his time on stage. Not only was his presentation heartwarming but he is quite a funny man, and an amazing speaker that is for sure. I am so glad I had the opportunity to watch and hear him speak, thank you Stampin’ Up!
While I was watching on my laptop I was also creating. I made two different cards using the Irresistibly Yours Speciality DSP. This amazing paper can be yours as well for free with a qualifying $60 order.
I was thinking about spring weddings while I was creating yesterday morning. My son’s girlfriend has a family wedding in South Africa in the spring so I had her in mind when I created this card. I can not have anyone in my family buy a factory/machine made card, it’s a golden rule in our house. If you need a card and don’t have time to make one I will make one for you, for heavens sake do not go out and buy one from the store!
I used my brayer to colour the DSP and pulled out some white vellum to heat emboss my sentiment, I placed some whisper white behind it to make it pop more. I used a retired flower punch with the vellum and placed some tiny pearls in the centre. I had originally tied some gold ribbon around the card but found it was just too much so I replaced it with some white satin ribbon. I am much happier with the card now.
Thanks for stopping by!
