Remember the Moments...........!

Hello friends & Happy Monday to you all!  How did ya'll enjoy that Superbowl last night----AWESOME right??  Lovin' me those Cheese Heads Green Bay Packers cuz' I DON'T like those Steelers so much (pleeez don't hurt me 'kay)!  Great game--down to the wire, the best kind!  AND Best half time in years---I loveeee me those Black Eyed Peas, Slash & Usher--they really rocked the house!  I was dancing & singing......much to the embarassment of my kids and their friends, LOL!  But of course the commercials are what get me laughing everytime---the Dorito's commercial (see below) was my fave LOL moment but grosser-out at the same time.  Whoever thinks that stuff THINKS JUST LIKE ME, ha ha ha---my brain is strange like that so I LOVE it when I see others who think the same way, LOL!  Cracked me up!  And then it was followed by Glee---gotta love that right?  Great night!  I am working (camped out) all day in my studio working on about 10 projects at once, lol, let's see how much I can finish up today.

Moments!


Today I'm sharing a card I did while on term for the Dirty Dozen Team for SCS last year.  This sentiment (by Verve) is my favorite sentiment of all times.  I have this on one of my bedroom walls---I think it's just beautiful and says everything!  You can find this Verve set HERE---it has lots of lovelies on it.


I don't remember the name of the paper I used but it was by K&Co.--I loved the soft taupes and greens in this card, very soothing.  Perfect card for someone special in your life.  The trim was done with a MS border punch and the matting behind the sentiment was done with a SB's pendant die.  I decorated it all up with some Prima roses, pearls and Pearl Swirls.  That large beautiful flower is by Prima as well and I love the sugary glitter topping it--so gorgeous and realistic looking.


I added some stardust Stickles around the sentiment as well for a little extra bling!  This shows you how you can take a pretty sentiment and decorate around it to really showcase it---makes for a nice card you think?  Not so hard either :)

See ya back here tomorrow for a fun blog hop.............stay tuned for that!

  6. LOL Suzanne, I'm so over the loss yesterday and all those Steeler haters....so you're good.

    Thought the Doritos commercial was hilarious. I also like the Doritos commercial where the gold fish & grandpa were resurrected.

    As always your card is amazing. I love that sentiment. And I particularly like your color scheme.

    Still waiting on that Copic class in Ohio...I promise not to wear my Steeler gear....

  8. Hey Suzanne, we are still partying in the streets around here, LOL! I live about twenty minutes south of Green Bay, and we are all diehard Packer fans here. I may not be a commenter, but I do visit your blog daily. Your work is an inspiration.
