Hang In There!


Happy Sunday afternoon, my friends! Oh my gosh, we are having such strong winds, I was at Michael's earlier and my car door practically flew off the hinges!!! But the sun is out, and it looks so pretty until you hit the wind!!! But it's still better than that "s" word that you have to shovel, and we aren't having those horrible tornadoes, so I guess all is good!

My card today is a simple one, but oh, I need about four more! Sometimes it seems that you have a lot of family and friends who could use some cheering up all at the same time. I made this one and now have to decide who to send it to!

Tilda is from the Raising the Ceiling collection as is the bow she's hanging from! I embossed the back panel with the hearts folder from Cuttlebug. The panel she's on is embossed with the score-pal and then the border is stickled. The design paper is from Colorbok, Pastel Garden. It really worked well with the colors I used on Tilda. She is colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, except for the face and hands, that's prismacolor markers. I stamped the bow twice and cut out the "loops" for a dimensional look. The main panel is also raised up with pop dots. I even did the inside!! Whoo-hoo... not really fancy, but I love the look!

So that's my card and I'm entering it in the following two challenges:

Thanks so much for stopping by! I love reading your thoughts on my work!

Hugs,

Teri

    I feel your pain with the wind! We've been having a lot of it here, too, but thankfully, no tornados! I feel so bad for those that have been hit with the tragic weather lately! Anyway! Your card is beautiful! I just love how she is hanging on and your colors are gorgeous! Great job!

    What a cute card this is! Very special and sweet. I love how you brought dimension to the stamped bow. You do beautiful work with these Magnolias. Your wind sounds like our strong summer winds we frequently get off the ocean. No balmy breezes on the Oregon coast. It's all out branch cracking gales!
