Hi all ~ It's been a few days. I couldn't miss out on the last (I'm guessing) of the challenges for the PTI release. I have another post of the Valentine's I made, but I'll save that for tomorrow.
I picked one of the cards from THIS POST on Dawn's blog.
I can honestly say - I've 'known' Dawn for a while now...from the time when she very first met Nichole Heady, to today, when she is releasing her VERY OWN line of stamps for PTI... As a friend, I am SO proud of her!! We've never met face to face, but have known each other for YEARS on the computer - through SCS. What a sweetheart.
I remember a time not all that long ago, where she was looking into how to get published, and the like, and ZOOM! Her paper-crafting career TOOK OFF! After so many publications - to get asked to design for PTI - a total dream come true.
I've had so much fun along the journey with Dawn - and am so excited for the next chapter in her story to unfold. I wish her the best of luck - not that I think she needs it. Don't forget us little people when you're big and famous, k???
Love you girlie!
Oh - right - my card.
This will be sent to a friend (she knows who she is...IF she's looking) because I came across this yummy stuff in the background when I found a box of TS stuff that I had set off to the side for some reason. I'm a TS consultant - and had this left over....well, a friend of mine LOVES the stuff and the product was discontinued...and I didn't think I had any - and lo and behold - FOUND SOME!!!
I went with Dawn's clear embossing roll, using Spiral Boquet. I thought this was a super fresh color combo. I gave this a little oomph with some bling on the flowers, and some accents with my stardust pen.
Thanks for stopping by - and if you haven't already - stop by and congratulate Dawn, k?? :)
I couldn't share a brain with a nicer, gal! I really like this card! So crisp and cheery!
ReplyDeleteOh it's soooo pretty! I love that perfect little bow with those scallops. I definitely need that punch! Beautifully done. I can tell this was a super popular color combo with the blog hopping I've been doing today. It's sooooo fetching!
ReplyDeleteI love this! So pretty and Sarah will be soooo stinkin' excited about the TS!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love the satin ribbon with that pretty scallop punch.
ReplyDeleteTracey this is really pretty! So dainty and gorgeous! I love the ribbon and scallop, and of course the colors :-)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card and awesome treat for your friend! Hope you are having a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. I love the bow on the scalloped border. Have a nice day. -Molly B
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. I love the scalloped border.
ReplyDeleteTracey, this is SO pretty......seriously, you did a fabulous job. And thank you so much for all the sweet things you said....you know I appreciate them so much. Love ya, Dearie!
ReplyDeleteOMW- talk about a GREAT surprise!! I have been checking your blog regularly, but got derailed for several days. So now I get back here and see THIS awesome post! OMG Tracey- it's like you struck gold and told me you are sending it all my way! I just told DS and he's psyched! (He's the biggest TS Italian seasoning fan!) You have totally made my day! It may sound silly, but we have seriously (yes- seriously!!) missed this stuff! I have about a teaspoon or so of the cherished spices in the jar and have been "saving" it, lol! I can not understand why they discontinued it- it seems crazy to me to think it possibly wasn't a huge seller. I SO hope they bring it back. But, in the mean time I now can use my last teaspoon of it knowing I will have yet another full, beautiful jar of our beloved spice! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for your awesome generosity!!!
ReplyDeleteOh- and your card- another beautiful creation! I especially love the way you wrapped the lovely satin ribbon around the scalloped border. And the card looks so pretty next to the seasoning ;-)! They totally compliment each other!! Wow- I am so impressed- and totally delighted! :-) Again, you sweet friend- you have absolutely made my day! :-)
