Live the Life...

Imagined....


I so really want to tell myself that right now!
But, of course, this card isn't for me.  It's for a dear sweet friend who I believe has made a change and I believe she is finally achieving what some of what she imagines.  She believes in herself and I am so happy to see that strength of spirit.

I'm featuring this card over on the 3GirlJAM Challenge blog today.  But let me tell you a little about the other stuff I used.

That gorgeous button in the center of the flower is from my favorite home based awesome business, Pinque Peacock.

And so is that Navy crinkle ribbon from 3GirlJAM!

I just love the fact that these buttons are handcrafted in the USA, the owners are home based enthusiastic business owners, and interacting with "customer service" is interacting with the CEO!    Oh and some CEO who is already rich, isn't getting the bulk of the profits...it's going in direct support of the FAMILY!  What's not to love about that.

All the other products are StampinUp! some of which are in the new catalog
- The DSP (SOHO Subway) - all of it from the flower to the beautiful yellow medallion
- Crumb Cake cardstock
- Midnight Muse Ink (inColor)
- Whisper White cardstock
- Daffodil 1/8" Taffeta (retired)

Inspirational Unity Blog Hop

I have three huge passions related to art: photography, jewelry making, and paper crafts. Above combines two of those passions: jewelry making and paper crafts. The necklace featured is a gift for a friend. I used Unity Stamp Company stamps in all the projects shown in the picture above. If you look closely, you'll even see that I used the Hawaiian Border and the swirls in the lambs fleece of Love Ewe to make the bronze charms in the jewelry above! Besides the stamps used, other materials included Bronz Clay, antiqued bronze findings, and various beads. Of course, what gift isn't complete without packaging? You can find the tutorial for the bag Here . Paper and cardstock, punches, and ribbon used are from Stampin Up! while the stamp used is from Unity's March Kit of the Month . People who know me know how I strive to use humor everyday...and especially to make light of otherwise stressful situations. So, my quote for the day has absolutely nothing to do with my project.
