Spongy Thanks






I had a great time making this card and using my sponge daubers.  I cut the thanks out with my silhouette cameo and ultimately decorated the card by sponging the colors.   This card is 4.5 x 9.5.

Crappy Day!






God has pressed upon my heart to give some cheer to my dear friends.  I love sending cards of encouragement or sending cards just to be thoughtful!  In this crazy world, we need to be uplifted especially when we run into a horrible day!  I decided to dig through my stash and use an old, but funny image and sentiment for this card!  I love images and sayings that play off of each other!  This image is from Unity Stamp called Crappy Day!   it also allowed me to pull in my heart washi tape to go with the image, and the kraft paper reminds me of the toilet paper roll!

Bright Thinking of You!





Today, I am using one of my favorite stamps just in a different way!  I bought this stamp out of the dollar bin at Michaels, and I seem to come back to it often.  This time, I used my Colorbox Primary Petal to make each flower a different color and to color the stems.  This Colorbox petal is quickly becoming my favorite because I can control the ink and it gives such vibrant colors. My thought for you today is to let someone special in your life know you are thinking about them!  Take a few minutes to send them a nice handwritten note!
