Hello friends! How are you?
It is another hot day in Southern CA. I didn't walk yesterday or
today. It is getting a lot warmer in the mornings; but some days I don't
sleep well. I know a lot of people who sleep better as they get older;
but I am not one of them. Lol!
I
created this card using Anna Griffin products I have in my stash. I own a
lot of crafting/cardmaking supplies that I have not used. This set of
card fronts is gorgeous; so I need to use more of them. The card base and
red layer is also from Anna Griffin. I have been practicing using things
outside my comfort zone; which card fronts has been one of them. Yes, I
bought them; but it felt like cheating when I used anything I haven't
colored. Lol! I have learned that creativity doesn't have to involve creating/coloring everything that you use. It is still your card when you create it; whether you color it or someone else does.
Happy Birthday Card
Using Anna Griffin Products (Including card front with butterflies)

Click here for my YouTube Videos. I have been creating mostly reels lately; which can be found on my Instagram account. Thanks for your patience.
CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024. I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies. They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart.

ReplyDeleteGloria, this is such a nice card. And I really agree with you about using pre-made card fronts. I just bought some from Divinity Designs. They are outdoorsy one that I just love. We can still be creative even when using things like that. And by the way, hugs to you about your sleeping. I'm with you. Some nights I sleep so well and for so long. Other nights I'm up half the night. My daughter got me taking a tiny bit of melatonin and it helps sometimes. I hope you sleep well tonight! And thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We really appreciate you!
