Thank Goodness its Friday cuz' it was a LONGGG week, lol! Hubby and kids have off Monday & Tuesday so we have a nice, long weekend ahead of us--yahoo! I'm sure you all heard the news yesterday about that awful plane crash in NYC--thank god no one was hurt but this DOES NOT help me feel good about flying to CHA next week. I was already super nervous & now I'm thinking of ways to not go---eeekkkkk---I don't know if I'm gonna make it, but we'll see. My friends will kill me if I back out now---oh that's even scarier, LOL! Anyway, I'll stop talking about my plane fears (at least for now, hee hee)!

Alrighty then, let's move on to cuteness for the day! Diana sent me these new elf images from Magnolia-licious and this one is "Alva with Flower" and oh my how I love these elfs. I have an elf fetish I think cuz' I just love 'em all, lol! I paired her up (very appropriately me thinks) with the new DCWV "The Green Stack" which is made of 70% recycled papers and the patterns are perfect for elf images--love this pack, DCWV can do no wrong!! I purposefully left off a sentiment so I could use this for any occasion. That cute lil' ribbon charm is by Blue Moon and you can get them at Susana's Custom Art & Card Design--this is in the medium heart assortment but she has TONS of choices. They're all so fun its hard to pick just a few...!
This close-up shows all the Shimmerz I used (golden wheat & angel wingz) on her. I used the Shimmerz on the embossed flowers behind her. If you haven't tried the Shimmerz yet you really should...they're so sheer that you can put a nice coat over your colored image and they dry so fast, I love 'em! I also used distressed stickles on her leafy skirt border and the flower center. Looking at this card just makes me feel cheerful & happy--I love the brightness of it all & hope you do too!
Alrighty, I'm off to breakfast for a friend's birthday and then getting my hair done---(can't show any roots at CHA ya know, lol)! Hope you all have a great weekend!
hugz,
Suzanne

Beautiful! I just bought the DCWV recycled pack and I haven't used a single sheet yet! That's it! I'm breaking it out today (I tend to hoard beautiful paper).
ReplyDeleteShe's just too adorable! I love this little pixie! The colors are just beautiful and I love, love the papers!
ReplyDeleteOMG how cute is this! I love the vibrancy and the image....so so sweet!

Hi Suzanne,
ReplyDeleteFabulous card loved all the attention to detail :o)
Hearts and Hugs

oooooh! This is adorable!! I have been eyeing these elf stamps...now you've pushed me over!
ReplyDeleteOoooh...I;ll go in your place to CHA! LOL!
So cute! I love this little elf and the colors are so bright and cheery!
ReplyDeleteYour card is adorable.
ReplyDeleteAs for flying, think of it this way. Plane crashes are few and far between. Since there was just a crash, the odds of you being in a crash are incredibly small.
Go to CHA and have a great time.
How stinkin' cute!!!! And the card is just beautiful! Great job!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the fun colors, Suzanne! And the heart charm, too - I'm lovin' the charms these days! See you in California in a week?
ReplyDeletep.s. I left an award for you on my blog. Feel free to play along if you like - my feelings won't be hurt if you don't.
Absolutely adorable! I love the elves too! I'm JUST getting started with these cute, cute Tilda stamps, so I'm just learning! But I have fallen head over heals over all of them. Your card is awesome!! Have lots of fun a CHA!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute stamp! Really, me teeth hurt, thats how cute she is!
ReplyDeleteAnd i love the colorcobo, bright and happy!
I love her too and especially the 3 colour stipey jumper you gave her. hugs, annie x
