Just Calling to Say...

 

WT1070 - Something that made a big impact on you

One phone call in September of 1997 changed the course of my life forever. In just a few moments, with the ring of a phone and the sound of a voice on the other end, everything shifted. That call led me to the person who would become my loving husband—the one who fills my days with joy, support, and unwavering companionship.

It was the most important call I have ever made, marking the beginning of the rest of our lives together. A single conversation, and a leap of faith, that set the foundation for a journey of love, laughter, and countless shared memories.

For my card, I die cut the Concord and 9th phone and stamped using the coordinating stamp set to create the phone.

It was popped up on dimensionals and layered on some fun designer papers.

The banner and speech bubble were added and also popped up on dimensionals.

70th Birthday

 

SC1079 - this week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

For my card, I pulled out my Heartfelt Creations flowers and leaves. The colors were sponged on and then they were shaped using a stylist tool.

Next, I cut the layers, using green and designer papers. I then added the flowers, 70 for a 70th birthday card and the banner popped up on dimensionals.

IC1031 - West Elm & Pinterest - Inspiration

I was inspired by the cute dog and pulled out this silhouette dog for a quick card.

I cut the layers down and matted on tan to pick up the paw prints on the large square.

Next, I die cut the dog, stamped the sentiment and popped up on dimensionals.

This is another of my cards for my pet card donation.
