Hello stamping friends!!
I hope you had a lovely weekend.
I have a prayer request. My Father-in-Law has a rare form of cancer and is having an 8 hour surgery this morning. Please keep him in your prayers that they will be able to remove the cancer cells and that he is able to make it through the long surgery with no complications.
Thank you so much for those of you who are willing to pray! His name is Harris Stephens.
This week we have a new Product Spotlight Sale and Weekly Candy at Stamp and Create.
The new candy is...A Set of Basic Grey June Bug Buttons and Brads...
See this post for details on how to enter the candy.
This week's Product Spotlight Sale is: Belles 'n Whistles Stamps.
All Belles n Whistles Stamps are on sale 25% off this week through Sunday.
We are currently out of stock of a few designs, but a restock order is expected by Thursday. However a few designs are on back order and will not be available during the sale: Patches n Braids, Sweet Apples, and Sweet Summer Days.
For my sample today, I created a card for one of Ansley's Teachers for Valentine's Day...
I used the adorable A Pen Friend with some "splotchy" from The Greeting Farm around the image. She's so sweet and sassy! The papers are Echo Park Yours Truly along with a Basic Grey Button, Bakers Twine, Magnolia Romantic Lace DooHickey, Coconut Mini Bloom, Fairy Floss Bloom, and Star Pins.
The sketch is from The Sketchy Challenges this week.
The image was embossed in black onto watercolor paper and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
I finished the inside with a stamped image, some hearts from the Magnolia DooHickey, and scrap DP...
This card is also for the following challenges...
The Corrosive Challenge: I Heart You (Hearts)
Stampin' Sisters in Christ: Make a heart stand out (I've got a lot of hearts on this - I hope it qualifies)
