My beautiful new GKD designer papers arrived over the weekend...I was hoping to get to make some cards with them before today's hop, but that just didn't happen. With all the prom preparation and the time it took to recover from the lack of sleep that resulted from waiting for Matthew and his "not-date" group to get back home, there just wasn't any opportunity. This proud mama just has to share a picture of her young man! If we're friends on FaceBook, you might've seen it already...
Thanks for indulging me! Now I'll get on to what you're really here for!
I gave a really tiny sneak peek of this card before the release party on Thursday...
Here's a sweet and simple design using Theresa's new set, Sweet Strawberries. These beautiful berries are so fun to color...their colors are so fresh and clean and bright! I gave them a very thin layer of Stickles so they would look dewey, or maybe freshly washed and ready to eat!
Notes:
Pure Luxury card stock
GKD Red Carpet designer paper
Memento Tuxedo Black ink
Copic markers
Nestabilities classic squares, large and small
Stickles
satin ribbon
Check out all the amazing designs and inspiration:
It is made with Tami's newest set, Vintage Notes, along with a pair of sentiments from her previously released "Girl Talk" set. I thought they were really funny together! I am gonna have to order the new Spellbinder's Office Supplies dies that coordinate with this set because I love that look! After finishing my card, I began to wonder when or to whom I might send it, and decided that it would make a great get well card for Karen! Her illness certainly caused a big buzz among those of us who are her friends. The release party just wasn't the same without her!
Notes:
Memento Rich Cocoa ink
Tim Holtz distress inks (Fired Brick, Frayed Burlap, Tea Dye)
corrugated cardboard arrow
spiral clip
flower brad
brown grosgrain ribbon

Your strawberry and notebook cards are inspiring, and it sounds like you are a truly giving person, who loves to reach out and help whenever you can. That is a rare and lovely way to be in this world. Thanks for being a wonderful crafter and wonderful person.
