I hope the weather is treating you all well. Mother Nature is kicking up a real fuss in our area. The storm has already hit the Seattle area and it is barreling it’s way over the Cascade range toward us. We are expecting as much as a foot of snow tonight and more later in the week. Yikes! Apparently people are going a little crazy trying to stock up at the last minuet. Since I am terrified of driving in those conditions I am always prepared for all eventualities except alternative heating if the power goes out. Fingers crossed that wont happen, the temp is already dropping fast. Burr!!!
My entire card was made from snippets. The background paper is a scrap from an old Martha Stewart Holidays stack. The hearts were punched from scraps with a Recollections heart punch, the lace from my jar of ribbon bits and pieces. The sentiment is a Studio G $1 stamp and the charm is from my stash. I have glued down that pesky little corner since taking the photo.
Cheap Trick: Use a post-it note as an extension or handle when punching smaller scraps.
Okay I'm headed to the playground to enter my card Di’s Pixies Crafty Snippets Challenge before the snow gets to deep. :)
I plan to hold up in the Closet until this storm passes so if I have power and the internet I will see you all tomorrow.
Have an Amazing Day!
Blessings

Hi Bernie - I totally love this! So pretty and of course, being pink it's top of the tree for me! You haven't linked in yet - maybe you forgot? If you have problems, just let me know and I'll link this little beauty in for you.
ReplyDeleteStay warm honey! Di xx
Oops it's been so long I forgot to link it. Done now. It's 9 AM and we already have 4" of the white stuff and it's still coming down gangbusters. Oh how I love shoveling. NOT!!!

Your card is so pretty! Thanks for the tip about the post-it note when punching something small. Just yesterday I was trying to figure out how to do that (with no success) :) Stay warm!!! ~Hugs, Cheryl
ReplyDeleteBernie, what a gorgeous card. The lace is sooooo pretty. That is a good tip you left your fans. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind getting that snow...hopefully, we'll get a little this winter besides the dusting we already had.
Wow this is stunning Bernie, what an elegant card, love the style and the paper looks like it's lace.. so beautiful. Hope weather will be nicer. xxx

Hi Bernie, beautiful snippets card - love the hearts and lace theme and what a bargain that dollar stamp was. Thanks too for the tip, very handy. Elizabeth x
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty. You have just given me an idea for a piece of paper that I printed ages ago which I had done from a piece of coloured card and a piece of lace - photocopied it - but so far unused.
