Leave it to Darlene and Diane to bring us another fabulous challenge - this one goes straight to the reason I started making cards in the first place: to use my words! Since then, I have added so many wonderful sentiments to my stash - here's one from PTI for the first Word Power Challenge!
I brought back the PTI pink and orange pattern pack, and a wonderful prize paper pack from D&D with the most wonderful small plaids for my butterflies.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the W&W scallops, so I brought them back today cut from a Bazzil cardstock called Citrus Slice. Here is the rectangular speech bubble in that set from The Stamp Market. The sentiment was a gift from Two Ls when I visited her, and it surely fits so many of the friendships I've made along the way.
Thank you, Darlene and Diane, for keeping us motivated by your wonderful challenges! I better get this one delivered - but I hope I've inspired you to take a new look at the many large sentiment stamps in YOUR stash, too!

What a fab sentiment to showcase, Michele. I really love the idea of this challenge.
ReplyDeleteYou must have been thinking about me when you made this one huh?!! Haha!! Seriously though, I love that sentiment and you know I love the pink/orange dsp you used! What a perfect card for this new 1st challenge...will definitely have to check them out! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteI must learn to concentrate more - I thought that picture of the paper pad was another card! I have looked properly now and can see exactly what it is! Great card and great use of that paper. Love the cute plaid butterflies too. Thanks for showcasing that wonderful sentiment xx
ReplyDeleteOh, how perfect! I love this sentiment and the big speech bubble is fabulous! I do think this is a wonderful challenge. I've certainly been looking at my big sentiments since I learned of it. You go with the designer paper, too, Michele!
ReplyDeleteI think that paper pack was made for me... how did I miss it lol. And YES, this challenge is the perfect one for you, and the perfect choice of sentiment too!
ReplyDeleteLove the colors and that great sentiment, perfect for a friendship card.
ReplyDeleteGreat color combination, Michele, and the sentiment fills the speech bubble with space to spare for some lovely little butterflies.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, and perfect for those nutty D's new challenge. You gotta love them! I think it's a brilliant idea. Love the sentiment. I have the PTI papers too and never used them. They are wonderful - I may just have to break them out. Big rain storm coming, so I will stay in my PJ's and make stuff today. Hope you are warm and cozy up there.
ReplyDeleteOh that sentiment - perfect! And I am loving the pink and orange - who woulda thought?
