Hi there. What a strange couple days it has been here in WNY. The weather has been very off lately. It is super sunny the one minute, and seriously the very next it is a torrential down pour. Then yesterday the earthquake in Canada was apparently felt all over our area as well...although I didn't feel a thing...lol. Tornado warnings, etc...just crazy. I guess it just makes the day more adventurous...ha ha.
Well today during the down pour, I decided to work on a card for a challenge. I used this week's
Mojo Monday Sketch, and also did the
Simon Says Challenge which is You Gotta Have Friends. Here is what I came up with.

I used this image I stamped off at a friend's house about a year ago. I THINK it is from High Hopes, but I am not positive. I colored it with twinkling H2Os and water color crayons.

I cut it out, and layered it onto some pink CS. I then layered that onto purple CS, and mounted that with foam tape. Now...the ribbon...well I spent like 10 minutes making this fancy folded ribbon only for it to not show at all...lol. It was the first time I had ever done it, and I was kinda proud of how it turned out for the first time, but...I guess it was more of a waste of time...ha ha. I made my own PP using some teal blue CS, and stamping a teapot and teacup in white ink. Hard to see, but I tried to get a close up for you.

It looks neat in person at least. I added 3 teacup brads, and the sentiment is from a Papertrey set. I mounted that with foam tape also.
Well that is it for now. Thanks for looking!
