Do you like to start your week on a Sunday or a Monday? My pedometer app asked me that today so I picked Monday. Thus I am showing you one more card from the inside out!
This card is stamped with stamps from the retired Dear Doily Stamp Set...another one with which I won't part!!
I used a retired color, Tranquil Tide, for my card base and stamped sentiments. The corners are punched with the Detailed Trio punch and I will be extremely sad when that retires.
Here's the front...
Have you grown tired of seeing this EF and die cut? I think I have, so I can safely promise you today is the last day and Monday I will begin anew! I do like the Tranquil Tide and Night of Navy together. The current Pretty Peacock would be a great substitute for the TT.
Thank you for stopping by today and for your patience while I went through the compression fracture. I have learned four valuable lessons through this ordeal:
1. First and foremost, DO NOT lift heavy machines when you have osteoporosis, even if you are lifting properly!
2. I can't use a manual die cutting/embossing machine when I have a fracture but I cannot afford an electric one!! I'm going to ask Santa for a scan and cut :-)
3. I can make a card in my lap using card packs!!!
4. I can make a card standing up using card packs!!!!
See you tomorrow, hopefully!
Lovely card! I miss Tranquil Tide - thank goodness for Pretty Peacock! :) Sounds like you're getting your how-to-deal plan firmly in place! Glad to hear it! Fingers crossed for Santa to come thru! :)
