Well, we have had sunshine for the past 2 days and another sunny day tomorrow. But, it's still pretty cold. Although it's bearable when the sun is out.
After our staff meeting at church this morning, I went for a haircut. I always have such great conversations with my stylist, Toni. And, she does a great job on my hair.
I did some practicing this afternoon with my prismacolor pencils I want to get better with this medium and it takes practice. I may take a class later this month at one of our local stores. I didnt use any pencils on this card though.
My card for today is one that I made for the challenge on "our daily bread designs". They had such a great layout to work with this week.
Julia Aston, was our hostess, and she chose the beautiful colors of rose red, marina mist and certainly celery.
I decided to play up the marina mist (blue) and use the rose red and celery in a minor way.
I made my own background with a music score stamp. I stamped this several times in marina mist.
My sentiment is from the ODBD set "worship the Lord". I cut it out with the labels 4 nestability die.
The Stampin-Up 2 step bird punch and a flower punch were used to complete my card.
Other challenges:
1. Baby Bud designs blog has a ribbon & bows challenge.
2. Top Tip Tuesday blog wants us to use ourfavorite embellishment or technique. I love ribbon and the nesties dies.
3. The Stampin B's challenge #100 wants us to use something music related on our card
