Happy Tuesday everyone!
Hope you all had a nice weekend? Ours was busy and it went by way tooooo fast! I wanted to thank everyone for the kind words and prayers for my supervisors family...I passed them on! Janice's memorial service was beautiful. Her former husband sang *Amazing Grace* and it just melted my heart! He did such a fabulous job. I was truly blessed having the chance to work for her...I wish we could have had more time though :(....., but I know she is in a better place and enjoying herself to the fullest :) !!!
Okay...I got to move on! It's time again for this weeks Flourishes Timeless Tuesday ~ FTTC111. This week my buddy Betty is hosting and she has a fun challenge theme....*use those poorly unloved other images in your stamps sets!* I'm guilty of that one...LOL!!!
Here is my idea.....
I used the yummy and oh so delicious Berry Sweet Set. I usually only grab the *Raspberry* or *Blueberry* image by itself...but today I also added the perfect matching leave image!!! It really adds another fab touch to this sweet Set :) !!! The images were inked in Memento Black and colored with these Copic Markers ~ Fuschia Collection, Green Grass Collection and a Colorless Blender. I wish my camera could have captured the striking green color a little bit better, but oh well...it is what it is!!! The card was finished off with some matching Scarlet Jewel Stitched Ribbon, a matching Button and some fabbo Silver Pearls.
Of course I could not have pulled it all off without the fabulous CR84FN21 color combo...
Now it's time to check out the rest of the team ~ Cindy, Maki, Dee, Betty, Tammy ideas. And please don't forget our super talented March Guest Designer Amanda!!!
Thank you for taking the time to swing by here today...have a fabulous day! Hugs ~S~

FTTC110, CR84FN20 Thank You...and more!!!
Hallo everyone!
Hope you all had a fabulous weekend? We sure did :) !!! We finally had nothing going on and I had a chance to clean my poor neglected home! Then Monday came around and unfortunately it was not a happy day at all...remember I was telling you about my supervisor Janice who was in the need of a heart transplant??? Well, our sweet Janice was taken home on Monday afternoon! Our Savior has lifted all the suffering from her and she can finally rest in peace! As you all can imagine our office is not a fun place to work right now. Janice was spunky, caring and the sweetest lady ever and I will surely miss her!!! If you find it in your heart please pray for her imitate family as they see through this sad time!
With all the resting this weekend I had a chance to stamp a card for today's Flourishes Timeless Tuesday ~ FTTC110!!! Our fabulous Maki is hosting this week and she is challenging us to add some *MASKING* to our cards/project! HERE is an awesome tutorital by our own super talented Julie Koeber. Can you tell where I got my idea from...LOL??? To be honest with you I haven't tried this technique in a long, long time and I'm glad Julie has created this tutorial for us...thank you Julie!!!
Okay here is my take on it....
My main image is from the sweet Mix-n-Mugs Set. I stamped the images in Memento Black and colored them with these Copic Markers ~ RV00, V01, BV000, V17, BV06, C0, C1, RV000 and YG99. Next I embossed the Plum Pudding CS with the QuicKutz Striped Lable Folder. Next I added the Plum Pudding Ribbon, matching Button, Silver Cord and the Silver Pearls.
My entire card came together with the awesome layout from this weeks SSS100 (without the spin) and the gorgeous colors are from the CR84FN20.

FTTC107, CRN84FN17 Good Luck...and more!!!
Happy Tuesday!
Gosh...time is flying by...it's March already! Yesterday we celebrated Sarah's 13th birthday! My *baby* is officially a teenager...HELP!!! I must admit it's frickin' me out...LOL! Before I know it she is asking for a driver's permit and so on....!!! But I also must admit that I have been very blessed with her!!! She is smart, beautiful and most of all she looks like me... :), she is a really good girl !!! Ha,ha,ha just had to throw that one in...giggle!!!
We have a really fun Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge ~ FTTC107 going on. Dee is hour host this week and she is challenging all of us to create an *IRISH* card/project or a card/project that has *GREEN* as the main color!!! So show us what you got and join us!!!
Here is my idea.......
I was lucky enough...I just received the Flourishes *Irish Blessing* Set in the mail and of course I had to use it for today's card!!!
My color inspiration for this card came from this weeks CR84FN17 Color Combo. My main green color is from the SU Pear Pizzazz Collection. The background was embossed with the SU Square Lattice Folder. I added some SU Pear Pizzazz Pattern Print DP. The main image was inked in Memento Black and colored with Copic Markers ~ YG11, G12,G21, G24, R0000, R00 and R23. To finish it all off I added some piercing, Glitter, Satin Ribbon, Button, Silver Pearls and some matching Scrapper's Floss.

Before I know it she is asking for a driver's permit and so on....!!! But I also must admit that I have been very blessed with her!!! She is smart, beautiful and most of all she looks like me... :), she is a really good girl !!! Ha,ha,ha just had to throw that one in...giggle!!!
We have a really fun Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge ~ FTTC107 going on. Dee is hour host this week and she is challenging all of us to create an *IRISH* card/project or a card/project that has *GREEN* as the main color!!! So show us what you got and join us!!!
Here is my idea.......
I was lucky enough...I just received the Flourishes *Irish Blessing* Set in the mail and of course I had to use it for today's card!!!
My color inspiration for this card came from this weeks CR84FN17 Color Combo. My main green color is from the SU Pear Pizzazz Collection. The background was embossed with the SU Square Lattice Folder. I added some SU Pear Pizzazz Pattern Print DP. The main image was inked in Memento Black and colored with Copic Markers ~ YG11, G12,G21, G24, R0000, R00 and R23. To finish it all off I added some piercing, Glitter, Satin Ribbon, Button, Silver Pearls and some matching Scrapper's Floss.
Have a wonderful week and I'll see you again soon! Hugs ~S~
