Hello flower for case this sketch
21 January 2014
Hi everyone. Happy Tuesday.
I have another quick post for you tonight with a card that I made for the casethissketch challenge
It's a great sketch and knew that I wanted to use the "hello" sentiment from Four You. It really is one of my favorite SU sentiments - just in case you hadn't realized that by now :-) I like the size of the sentiment. I like the font. I wish there were others with this same clean font style!
Now, "hello, flower" might not be a term with which you are familiar. But where I grew up, "flower" is a term of endearment much like "lovey" or "ducky" or "dearie". So, I thought pairing this sentiment with a floral motif was a good match :-)
I used the Embroidered Blooms set from PTI which I colored with Raspberry Ripple, Lucky Limeade and Crushed Curry.
For the vertical element, I ran a piece of Raspberry Ripple card stock through my Big Shot with the new SU Arrow embossing folder.
Here's my card:
If you haven't seen the new Occasions catalog - and the free goodies you can get from SU during Sale A Bration, don't forget to get hold of your demo and ask for details.
Talking about free goodies..... some of you may remember that I offered up some blog candy in this post.
Then, I announced the blog candy winner in this post. Well, the wonderful winner, Colleen, sent me an email and asked that I please redistribute the love as she had already been a blog candy winner on my site before. Isn't that awesome? I really do have the most amazing blog family! So, courtesy of Colleen, I put the number of correct answers into a random number generator in the order in which they appeared on my blog. the number generated a new winner
Missy..... Congratulations, you are the winner of the SU grab bag. Please send me an email with your physical address and courtesy of moi - and, of course, Colleen..... I will be putting your grab bag in the mail
I'm off back to work, but will be back on Thursday with another post. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.
Hugs
Jaydee
