Congrats!

Good morning friends! Happy weekend! I know it isn't usual that I get a post up on the weekend, but I guess my time is not "usual" right now!;) I was asked to make some cards for the PTA at the elementary school. I am happy to make cards for people that make my kids days happy!!

 

I was super excited to pull my silhouette out off the shelf for this card! I love that machine, and I haven't used it since we moved, and I miss the fun that comes with it! I didn't have quite the right "congrats" in my stamp supply...I had a certain idea of what I wanted to do and didn't have quite the right look in stamps. So, I pulled out my trusty Silhouette and went to town!

 

I ended up making quite a few changes to one of the sentiment I had in my library...I'm getting better at that software and it is exciting to make things do what you want!! So, this congrats is altered a bit from the image in the online store...and I LOVE how it turned out! I used some silhouette double adhesive paper to cut my sentiment, then used some gold glitter to add some sparkle!

My paper is from Crate Paper, Maggie Holmes...and I LOVE the patterns in that pad! My flowers are mini blooms from PTI.

 

I hope you had a wonderful weekend...we are currently enjoying the RAIN! I know many of my friends on the east coast are enjoying (lol) crazy winter storms, we are having a pounding of rain as of late! There are two bridges that lead to my little town, and one of them has been under water....oh the delight!;) I am listening to the rain pattering on the roof and thankful to be inside and dry!!

 

Take care friends and I'll see you Monday! Thanks for stopping by!
