Good morning friends! I've had a little bit more time to play since I am no longer designing for Provo Craft. It has been a bit bitter sweet, but I have to admit, I am liking the lack of deadlines and pressure. I love being able to step into my craft room and create just for the pure joy of creating. I am not even sure I like this card today, but it was therapeutic to play around. I used various Spellbinder's dies and a Melissa Frances chipboard house.
I used this large acrylic gem for a pop of color......
Some glitter, rhinestones, and my girly, wintery, vintage house was complete!
My dear daughter, I believe, has banged her tooth. It is turning brown and we are going to the dentist to see what they say about it. I am praying she doesn't need a root canal. She has had only one cavity her entire life and that was just a simple filling. When you have Cortney, little things can become big things......so I am crossing all my fingers and toes that it's not as bad as I think it is!
Off to school again.....I need to finish decorating and setting up!
Have a great day!
LOVE your card!
ReplyDeleteWhen Club Ruby Designers' closed I was both sad and relieved. I didn't miss the pressure of deadlines and I missed the pressure of deadlines lol. Sort of a Tale of Two Craft Tables :D. I really did get a lot more crafting done, but I'm really enjoying being leisurely about it and enjoying the process of it. But with Christmas just around the corner, I really need to step it up :D.
Michele,
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're able to create just for fun again. It feels good doesn't it. I
Hope it's nothing serious with Courtney and they can fix it easily.
Have a good day!

Forgot to mention how great your card is! It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis so so pretty! I love the pink gem you used!
ReplyDeleteSometimes deadlines can ruin the fun.
ReplyDeleteI hope it's an easy fix for Courtney. I imagine a root canal would be really hard on her. It is on me, hah. Good luck.
It is so pretty for a "goofing around"
ReplyDeleteLove it!
Gorgeous!! Love the layered flower. Glad you're enjoying the freedom of designing without limits!! ~ Blessings, Tracey

Love your card! Even when you are just playing around you are an inspiration. I hope Courtney's tooth is an easy fix. I totally agree that root canals are no fun!
ReplyDeleteLove your pretty little card and I sure hope your daughter does not need anything major doing to her tooth.
ReplyDeleteI love your card and all it's layers!
ReplyDeleteThe pressure of deadlines never reflected in your work! It is always fresh, fabulous, and finished!
ReplyDeleteI'm still quite sad over the loss of you wonderful designers, but I am glad that you are getting the freedom to create...this is gorgeous!!!! It's been pinned so I can try to recreate it with my cricut...I'm just starting my spellbinders collection, these dies are definitely being added to the list of must haves!!!!
