Ok things are really heating up in this house, the move is now inevitable and boxes are appearing all over the place, i am still sanding and renovating a few old pieces of furniture thats gotta look new for the new house and my husband is planning a business trip to China the week of the move. If you are wondering how he can leave me with a house to move and three kids, imagine a screaming lunatic with more to do than one person can cope with and you get a pretty good picture of why he can decide to escape the move, lol.
So after sanding down a seat for the girls room and not having much joy today as the sander has now decided to give up the ghost so i gotta go get a new one tomorrow, i sat my weary toosh down and decided to make a card with an image that i have had colored for quite a while and enter it into the challenge on Sassy Cheryls blog where the challenge is to use pink and a die cut.
I have certainly used pink and my die cut is a spellbinder that i used to mat my image.
Have a great week

P.S: As we are all aware it is breast cancer awareness month and there is a new challenge called link up for pink in a breast cancer awareness campaign. so i am using my card to link up to the challenge as for those that know me will know this is a cause very close to my heart, perhaps later today i will be brave enough and share My story on my blog.
Have a great week

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, I love the soft colours and die cut.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us in Sassy Cheryl's challenge.
Paola - as always you make the most beautiful cards and with all your house in such an uproar, I don't know how you do it!!! Have a question for you when you have a free moment. I have been working on folds and pleats to no avail. My pens just wont blend the colors out, it looks like there is no saturation. Any suggestions? I am using cryogen, and am laying down 5 to 6 layers to no avail. Would love to get your input.

ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous card Paola and an adorable image. Super stunning.
Thanks for playing in the Sassy Cheryl's think pink challenge this week. So glad you could join us.
Oh my, with all that going on how could you possibly find the time to create such a lovely card?! I don't know, I think I would have preferred it if my hubby had taken a trip to China the last time we moved. He about drove me crazy! If anybody can handle it, it's you!

Hi Paola
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed that with your house in turmoil with the impending move, you are still able to create such a beautiful card. You rock!
I try not to dwell on why men do what they do at times, however he obviously believes you are perfectly capable of handling whatever comes your way. Do let us know when the move is due so that I can send out some good, positive thoughts for you.
Each of us has a story to tell and need to be heard - I would be honoured if you share your experience with us. Take care x
Absolutely beautiful card....
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for linking up with us for Link Up for Pink....
