~ happy birthday ang...



~ here is a memory card I was asked to make recently
it was a great picture to work with
and I love pink and grey quilling together


a few days after making the card I noticed a mark above the 'flame'
it must have happened while sitting on my table


sooooo I used my fingernail to get it off but it only made it worse
then I tried white out {bad idea}
then I tried a white pen {whiter than the paper}
and I was literally on my way to deliver it


I could not have been more frustraited
after going through my stash for *something* to cover it up,
the bling already on the card caught my eye
so I covered it up with 3 of the same blings
{don't think blings is a word but it fits}

moral of the story
don't pick a black mark off a white card with your fingernail
just cover it from the start
 
I am sure you all have similar stories

~ quilled wedding cake


~ good morning

a new twist on a old card
you can see the original here


this one has more of a vintage feel
and I think I like it more than the original


 tone on tone with a splash of colour really appeals to me

until next time

~ anniversary card


~ good afternoon
just sharing an anniversary card I made for a wonderful couple
who have been married 50 years





 they said no gifts 
but I just had to make a card

I've quilled this cake before
but since I was in a hurry I added bling instead of quilled flowers
I like the look

not bad for a 10 minute card
