Vikki Jo's Corner: Sympathy card for Aunt Helen

Sympathy card for Aunt Helen

I don't know what to say here....

I used up some scraps of white (not SU) I cut the 3 Label Framelits then sat here looking at it.

I wanted it to be just white on white, but I also wanted to use Bordering on Romance.

Well after doing about 12 pieces I decided on this one, Delightful Daffodil, More Mustard and Old Olive. I barely shaded in the flowers with DD. using a blender pen

I used the Edgelits Die on the first layer, then the Embossing Edgelits and the border stamp from bordering on Romance. This is my first card totally on my own and I can't tell you how many pieces I've tossed cuz I just can not stamp well

Sadly now I see that my center image slid out of place.

And just look at all those pearls! Man I love them things!

Can't Put the Frog in a Jar

Here's the ultimate 'dork moment' ..you all know the All Wrapped Up set?

Well a friend had a bumper sticker that says "FROG" Fully rely on God
so I thought I would make her a cute card with a frog in a jar.
I stamped the jar put a couple Lady Bugs in the jar, stamped the lid...(got side tracked for a moment dealing with my critters) went back to my card and got upset.... "ahh man I forgot to put the frog in the jar" my dd said so why's that a problem, my answer "I already put the lid on it"

She had to walk away so I didn't see her laughing at me.

I was truly stumped as to how that frog was going to get in the jar with the lid on.
She has not let me get away with that one...she told everyone at my next workshop all about it!

They already knew I was a dork, this just proved it!

Now everyone that knows, makes cracks about frogs and jars whenever they have the chance.
