Thinking of You

Hello & Happy Saturday!

So glad the weekend is upon us!
We had some rain & thunderstorms last evening.
Gigi had her Thunder Jacket on which seems to be really helping her as far as loud noises and beeps are concerned. Thankfully I was home from doctor appointment before they started!
I had my doctor appointment in which was a very good one with my Dermatologist.
I jinxed myself yesterday saying that I have not had any new spots/plaques. I found one on my neck/shoulder after my shower. Doctor told me that I can get them at any time or place. As soon as I find them I am to start getting the heavy duty ointment on them. I have a huge spot/plaque on the back of my one leg. It's been there for a very long time and I swear it gets bigger everyday. He told me to put ointment on it everyday and at night time to cover it with Saran Wrap to help keep it moisturized which will help get rid of the scales. 
This is a whole new ballgame for me and i'm sure I have lots to learn! 
I have a really nice doctor there, always happy to answer any questions and offer suggestions. 
Also suggested I get ready for the winter months as that is when psoriasis usually rears it's ugly head!
All in all he was pleased with my progress and said he'd see me back in 6 months!

Anyways, today hubby & I are going to head out and grab some groceries and hit up the local farm stand to get some locally grown veggies!
I do want to share a set of cards I made for my customer last week.
She loves her Thinking of You cards....





When she asked for Thinking of You cards I really wanted to use a different stamp set but because she suggested I use the Friendships Sweetest Thought set that is why I used this set.
She wanted the little bird on top colored red for a cardinal and I tried several times to color the entire image and make the bird red....I just could not do it. The images are way too small and I could not for the life of me get the ink inside the lines. After 3 times I said...nope not today and just stamped my image in Real Red ink and called it done.

Card Set Details:

Stamps: Friendships Sweetest Thoughts (retired)
Ink: Real Red
Cardstock: Real Red, Whisper White, Real Red DSP (retired)
Accessories: Lots of Labels Framelits (retired), Washi Label Punch (retired), Real Red 1/8 Grosgrain Ribbon (retired), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

She always tells me not to stress over her cards but I do.
She loved them!
Guess that is all that matters!

Friendship's Sweetest Thoughts

Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Halfway thru the week!
2 more days till the holiday weekend arrives!
I'm looking forward to doing some things around the house (nothing strenuous), grilling and just relaxing! Not sure if we will get the bikes out or not since they are calling for summer like weather (hot & humid) but we'll see. 

Today I have a cute set of cards to share that was made last week for a card order.
These use a set from the Occasions Mini Catalog that will be retiring come next Thursday, May 31st. It is called Friendship's Sweetest Thoughts.





Card Details:

Stamps: Friendship's Sweetest Thoughts
Ink: Memento Black, Copic Markers
Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Whisper White, Petal Garden DSP
Accessories: Lots of Labels Framelits, Pool Party Twine, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue


I was drawn to this set as soon as I seen it and have used the sentiment quite a bit on other cards but never used the main image. It was fun to color with my Copics since I do not have the Stampin Blends, yet! They are on my list to order once they become available again! Anyways, I just love that little cart full of beautiful flowers! I know this set will be retiring but I will be using it alot more in the future! It has that perfect spring-summer look to it and who does not like flowers?!! 
I'm pretty sure these will brighten up someone's day and that makes me happy!

Petal Palette

Hello & Happy Friday!

So happy the weekend is here!
Hopefully that sun will continue shining brightly to melt the snow!

Today I have a set of cards to share that was for my customer.
I made her a card a few weeks ago thanking her for a sweet treat she gave us and she loved the card so she ordered a pack but changed out the sentiment to a Thinking of You. 





I'm not sure if you can tell in the last picture but I added some clear Wink of Stella to the roses for some shimmer. It really makes them stand out.

Card Set Details:

Stamps: Petal Palette, Friendship's Sweetest Thoughts (sentiment)
Ink: Memento Black, Copic Markers
Cardstock: Daffodil Delight, Whisper White
Accessories: Petal & More Thinlits, Garden Trellis EF, White Pearls, Clear Wink of Stella, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue


I think I am hooked on those roses! I designed a card to make with my stamp friends using this set. 
I will share it with you next week!
