This one was originally made by Jen Coleman - I added only the Hollyhock back piece with another row of scallops and stamped a Happy Birthday greeting inside! Isn't it wonderful?! It filled a need for a beautiful birthday card with only about 3 minutes of my time invested. Thanks for the rescue Jen!!!
Update on life - I had my first ever nail acrylics put on today and done in a lovely natural length and shape - with french manicure. I'm still adjusting, but I think I'll love them! I know I'll be showing my hands off in the very near future . . .
What a lovely card, Sharli! Even though you haven't been able to craft much (for a wonderful reason), you sure haven't lost your touch!
As for your nails...I used to LOVE my acrylic nails, especially the French manicure look. I'm sure they are gorgeous and now I'm wondering if you are going to be showing off some sparkle soon....hmmmmm, can't wait to see for sure!
You're a tease!! I can't wait to see WHY you got those fabulous nails to show off your hands :) I'm hoping for another kind of bling on a certain finger!
Sharli my friend you always tease and amaze. The card is really beautiful. Nice 3 minutes to a wonderful card. I love getting nails. I haven't had any for about a month now. I need to get mine put back on, but for a very different reason though. Can't wait for the new reveal ;)
Pretty card, Sharli! I foresee a genuine Sparkle on your ring finger soon. I'm sure your eyes have been sparkling brightly for a while. So happy for you!
My banner photo is from the Chihuly glass exhibit at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix, AZ. My daughter and I visited there on her trip home February 2009 and took some beautiful photographs. We both loved this boat load of glass!
I'm a child of God, a wife, mom, friend, scrapbooker and stamper. In addition to my beloved husband, I love yoga, Bilbo (my cat), playing in my studio, and puttering in the garden. I am looking forward to spending time with grandchildren!
