Friday.....T-Day recap

Well, it is the next to last week for T-Day Challenges in Paola's Punch Card Swap. And. I am a day late...I sure do hope my fellow crafters will forgive me. My DH can attest to the fact that I had my card done, but I was just too tired to blog it...lol

Melina was our virtual hostess this week and asked us to use one stamp three times on embossed paper. I must admit that my card is not very imaginative, but is heartfelt. I was putting away some things and saw this DP from SU! I had the orange card stock on my desk and thought it went well with the paper, but then decided it was too dark for Spring time... So, I found the teals in my scrap pile and thought it went well with the rest.....

Okay, I even bored myself trying to tell you how this came to be....so, I am just going to show you and hope you ignored all that and will focus on my card!



Thanks for stopping by!
HUGGZ,
April

    This officially qualifies as 'grandma' paper!!!! I love me some 'grandma' paper. It almost always looks wwwaaayyy bettah when it is finished - or let's say older! LOL

    The orange looks great with the teal. I like that combination.

    You treated the flowers well with embossing and sponging them.

    I am glad that you are feeling better!
