I had the coolest Secret Sister in the whole wide world!!! I wish I would have taken a photo of the amazing box I received yesterday, but when I opened it last night, I really dug in deep! :D David and I had spent the day at the Church District Christmas party, so it was late afternoon when we returned home. Lo and behold this box of goodies was waiting for me at the back door. It was filled with gorgeous handmade ornaments, beautiful handcrafted cards, several kinds of Tootsie Rolls (WOW!!!! and yes, I did share! giggles!), a fascinating book on herbs and spices that I am still going through, some gorgeous Primas, beautiful vintage styled tissue paper that I can not wait to try out, and some other neat vintage type embellies. I was in hoggie heaven!!! Thank you so much, Amy!!!!
So of course I needed to come up with a thank you card for her. Along came the challenge of the week over at Mo's Digital Pencil2 - create a thank you card. Perfect!!! So I typed out this sentiment under the fun image and printed. I colored Bella like any young girl would dress herself - BRIGHT! who cares if pink and red aren't supposed to go together? they are FUN!!! and of course the petticoat and socks needed some shimmerz to make them sparkle! so did the confetti - of course again! :D I used papers from the Basic Grey Junebug collection punched out in various flower shapes to match the flowers in the paper. Added some red flowers from Making Memories as well as gold sequins and some red & white polka dot ribbon that matches the papers. The edges of the flowers are bent up to add extra dimension.
I sure hope she enjoys her card as much as I have enjoyed the goodies in my box. and by the way, the Tootsies are all gone........ :D
Sounds like you got some wonderful things Jennifer and I love this little thank you card you made her! It's just such a happy card and reflects perfectly how happy you were to receive everything.
