Hey there! Just little ol' me again... I hope that your week has been going well. Today I see sunshine - yay! We even have the backdoor open (gasp!). As I am preparing this post, my DH is cooking. Backyard on the grill we have some yummy smelling chicken cooking. I cooked (if you could call it that - lol!) the past three days, so I told him that he could cook today. He really is a good cook. Much better than I will ever be! You know what? I am totally OK with that : )
Did you know that Prairie Fairy is having a Design Team Call? You have until Midnight on Friday, April 16 to enter. Winners will be announced on Sunday, April 18. Roberta is the BEST Fairy in town, I tell ya : ) Why not give it a try?
I have a totally FUN card to show you today. I've used
Gerry's Birthday Set. This digital set comes from Prairie Fairy Designs and includes a giraffe, gifts and an adorable cake - which I obviously didn't use this time.
The challenge this week at
Fairy Fun Fridays is to use eyelets and string. I don't mind telling ya that I had a terrible time with this card. It was one of those days that nothing was coming together. This is the third image I colored... It was my fault the other images didn't turn out. They were UGLY! The colors I used were really, really bad - lol! I finally settled on this. At least the colors complement each other!!! The most fun I had was doing the eyelets. That part went flawlessly - whew!
I
finally planned ahead of time (because Roberta gave us this great challenge) where I wanted to place the eyelets. I marked on the dp and hammered away! Usually, I have the papers glued down and then realize that it's too late to include them.
...and here's Gerry! Isn't he cute? I love him all ready to party with his hat and big bow tie. Don'tcha just want to take him home with ya?
