Hello my wonderful friends! I can't wait to tell you who said YES to my invitation to Play Cards this month!! Are you ready?? My sweet little-sister-from-another-Mister: Tracey McNeely!!
Tracey has been such a big part of my crafty journey - if you type her name in my search this blog box, you can bear witness to that!
We've met - twice! Been on several design teams together [12 Kits of Occasions, and Muse] I've given a helping hand with her Christmas Tags events several times, and it is always a joy to have one of our video chats - thanks for that special birthday edition this year, sweet friend!
You all love her, too, I'm sure of it! So, without further ado, and since our birthdays are only two days apart, here is our assignment:
- Make a birthday card
- Add flowers
- Colored anyway you choose
- But absolutely NO NUMBERS ALLOWED! LOL
I was treated to a BIG bag of goodies recently - needless to say when I spotted a new-to-me TULIP set among them it was a no-brainer which set to use today! Ready. set. go...
I had to add a dash of grey, but ALL of these supplies were gifts from friends:
Flower Market Bouquet - The Greetery
Communique Curves Sentiments - PTI
Tag Builder - HoneyBee Stamps
Fancy Circles - Pinkfresh Studio
Now I know I'm not alone in thinking while the inks are out, and the stamps are in the MISTI why not make two? Aren't I generous to give you a bonus today?
Here are the inks I've used today:
Are you ready to see what Tracey made?? ME TOO!!! Let's go - thanks for dropping by!!

ReplyDeleteMichele your two beautiful cards simply perfect! Your flowers on the grey background are so fresh and modern and you have such a gift with your use of embossing folders. I was so honoured to be asked to play cards with you my friend, thank you so much for asking me! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHey, I recognize that stamp...haha!! You've used it beautifully on both cards Michele and I'm glad you found some keepers in that bag of goodies!!
