My day was brightened when the mail came and my new shtuff from My Favorite Things arrived. I have never ordered from them before but always loved the style. I was so excited to play last night. Here are the things I ordered. Note: I blocked out the sentiments that might be offensive to you that have your kids hanging around the computer or if you might be offended. My daughters saw me taking the sets out and I forgot that I ordered Twisted Sentiments and my oldest was trying to figure out what a stampgasm was! Oops....hence the blocked image! :) I ordered copic glitter spica pens and 4 stamp sets! Can't wait to use these all!
So, here is my first card. I was wanting to make a quick card, but this one took an hour!
Supplies (SU unless otherwise noted)
Stamps: Time for the Bubbly (MFT)
Paper: soft sky, pretty in pink, whisper white, berry bliss designer aper
Ink: jet black stazon, chocolate chip
Accessories: pink polka dot ribbon (my copic pens were wrapped in it!), pretty in pink eyelets, white signo gel pen, clear and silver copic spica pen, pretty in pink..chocolate chip..blush blossom markers, cutter kit's distressor tool
The main image was stamped on ww with stazon ink. Then I stamped the image again on berry bliss and cut out the "wall" to glue on the ww image. I then colored in the rest of the image using said markers. The bubbles were colored with the clear spica pen. I matted on pretty in pink (distressed) and chocolate chip (doodled). The ribbon was attached to soft sky card base. I then added the matted image and the eyelets and sentiment stamped in chocolate chip. There ya go!
Note: For those that have been following my son's illness, he just got his IV out. He did have quite a high fever last night and still has diarreah, but it looks like we are on the mend. Thanks for all the positive thoughts and prayers! They were greatly appreciated!
Ooooh! What lovely treats! I must get me some Copic Glitter Spica pens. Don't own any MFT stamps yet. Maybe it's about time I wandered over there for some shopping therapy! lol! Hope your little one is doing better today than yesterday. ((hugs))

What a wonderful card! Love how you doodled around the edges and distressed them as well.
Sorry to hear about your little guy. I haven't been able to check for some days and hope that he and your hubby are feeling better. My thougths are with you and your family.
Hugs!
