Back with another entry to the Cloud wPlus9 Blog Hop! Here is the photo we were given as inspiration this month:
I still only have the one wPlus9 set, but I was determined to make it work :) I mostly had to go along with the colors of the photo, and then I found some MME paper with a pattern (reminds me of a quilt pattern) in those exact colors. Add a red wheelbarrow, a sentiment in green, a turquoise ribbon, and bam! My card ;)
So I know I've been absent this week. Oh boy do I have a LOT going on with work and my women's group that I'm the president of. I just had a big ceremony and lunch for the Veteran's at work today, and I'm pooped. I have tomorrow off for working today, and I'd love to relax, but projects for the Chelmsford Women of Today call! I've got something going on every night this week except Friday. But I'm determined to make some cards tomorrow, too, so that my blog isn't empty all week.
I hear you Jessica...life is a bit to crazy right now...all my posts for the next two weeks are from my scrapbooking weekend last weekend! I love that patterned paper...it is awesome combined with the wheelbarrow. Awesome take on the inspiration photo.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card. That patterned paper is just adorable. You are really working your one stamp set! So, now you don't need any more, right? That wheelbarrow is so cute.

ReplyDeleteGreat way to use that set for the inspiration challenge! The patterned paper works perfectly for quilt-like feel.

A busy week...
I haven't known a non one in so long...
I'm pooped just thinking of all the busy weeks still left! :(
But it all works out in the end...
and I know my crafty stash will still be waiting!
Good luck...
and have a great one! :)
Life definitely seems to pick up the pace in the fall, doesn't it? I hope things slow down enough for you to have some crafting and relaxing time. This card is fantastic with that bold patterned paper and gorgeous bow! I love how you highlighted the sentiment with the blue gems, too.
ReplyDeleteWow, you do sound busy, but even still found time to make a great card...love that you made one set work for you. You chose the perfect patterned paper and I love the wheelbarrow and sentiment you chose to use. Great job...hope you get some time to create again soon!
ReplyDeleteThis is the start of busy …busy! You sound like you have a lot on your plate. Love your card and gorgeous bow. Such a beautiful CAS card. I bought stamps so I could play and then did not make a card in time.
