Coral Rose

 On Friday afternoon a group of retired ladies get together for bowling, most are friends that worked together at Woolco/Walmart, no prizes, no pressure the only thing we strive for is reaching a 100 count in pins for the game, we do have over-achievers that double that goal, a lot of laughs and a great afternoon with friends. The one of the staff has had surgery and I made this card for all of us to sign and have it delivered to her. I love my ancient Stippled Rose stamp from Stampin'up, it makes for a quick card in a hurry. 


I really had trouble picking a colour for the rose, I'm sure I went though the rainbow trying to decide as my favourite colour is purple but not everyone is a fan so teal/turquoise came to mind but when I sat down with my markers picking out colours  I spotted the coral and it was decided.  
All layers were cut with Elizabeth Craft Designs Stitched and scalloped rectangle dies. The Thinking of You is a sticker sentiment from Starform, in my stash for eons, the small sentiment is perfect as not to overshadow the focal point.


The sentiment I found on a verse page and thought it was perfect. 

Thanks for looking today, stay safe and stay well.

It's a Charmed Life.....

Shopping Our Stash has a new challenge this fortnight and Chris is the hostess and has decided it's a Charmed Life, we just want to see a charm on your project. Easy Peasy!!! So go dig through the embellies drawer and pick a really neat charm to add to your project.


I needed a birthday card for a friend and thought I can have a two-fer, Birthday and Challenge can't get better than that.  The stamp I used is called Stipple Rose (ret 2006.) from Stampin'up, I have had it for many, many years.  I made it into an A6 card so I could use the edge dies.


And since the theme is "charm" I found this little heart charm in the drawer I keep odd stuff, I'm sure this charm is older than the stamp. 


I carried the oval theme to the inside for the sentiment.
