Believe in Miracles...

Well, I do. I'm a nurse and I have seen plenty of things that I would call a miracle!! Anyway.. Verve has weekly sketches on their forum at SCS and this is for week 1. My blogging friends Andrea and Wanda used this dp... of course, since I fell in Love with it and I AM seriously easily enabled... had to get some myself. One of the patterns has fairies... now, I don't necessarily believe there are fairies, I do believe in angels. Why, you ask {non-believers out there, LOL!!} because I want to!! I also work at Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte- in the national news a while back with photos of what appeared to be an angel in the doorway of a child's room. So I thought Verve's sentiment "Believe in Miracles" fit the dp. This set originally was for Breast Cancer Awareness month and now, I am involved in research so, it was a must have for me... well, all of Verve's stamps are "must haves" for me, LOL!!

Enough of that... here's the card

TFL!! Appreciate when you stop and all your kind words!!

Ingredients
Stamps: Verve Believe and Love Notes (border and dots on the die)
Paper: Graphic 45 Once Upon a Springtime, vanilla, crumbcake

Birthday Girl

MFT's weekly stamp club challenge is doing sketches this year!! You can check it out on their blog or in their forum on SCS. Love sketches as most of the time I use these as a starting point. Original card I made, I flipped the sketch 90 degrees but, sentiment didn't work. On this one, I still put the sentiment in the bottom left corner instead of next to the bow but, I think it worked best there. Image is one of MFT's  Al la Modes {starting to love these as much as the PIs}!!! This one is aptly named Birthday Girl. She was stamped in memento tuxedo black and colored with copics. Added tiny pearls for her necklace. Cupcake colored with copics and added liquid applique for the frosting... yum!! Added pink pearls along the border and square panel.

TFL!! Love when you stop by and leave comments, love reading them!!

Love, Love Me Do...

You know I love you, I'll always be true, so pleeeease, Love Me Do!! {singing in my best Beatles voice, LOL, I can't carry a tune!!} Yikes... showing my age a little??? Made a Valentiney's Day Card using Verve's Love Notes. Julee's got a sale going on, so you need to go check it out. Used Amy's sketch from the weekly Verve sketches on SCS and some yummy dp from My Minds Eye called Je t'adore, love this stuff!! Inspiration also came from Moxie Fab World's Tuesday Trigger with a pic from MS and the C4C73 challenge to make a Valentine's Day Card. Used the colors {pinks, vanilla, red but, I have pomegranate going on here}, Valentines {heart},  and scalloped box border {scalloped punch under sentiment} from the inspiration pic.

TFL!! Gorgeous weather going on here... have family in the Midwest and they are dealing with a couple foot of snow {live a little south of Chicago}. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!!
