Just For You All Occasion card

Hello friends!  Are we having fun yet?  It is a sunny day here and I managed to take my walk yesterday morning before it got too hot.  I actually walked 1.5 miles; which is more than I have done on my previous days.  I have a lot of leg pain and a meniscus tear in my left knee; so I am very happy that I was able to push myself just a little bit more today.  I decided to take a break from walking today.

I love creating cards and trying to come up with ideas that are a little different than my previous cards; but there are a few tried and true card layouts that I love no matter what I use on them.  A pattern paper, cardstock, ribbon and dies, with a sentiment; make this little card very elegant.  You can create a simple card without dies if you need to.  I love my dies and love using them; so I guess I am spoiled in that way.  

  All Occasion Card

  5. Sweet card Gloria! I know what you mean about having favorites in the craft room. For me it's using 3 flowers on a card. I often feel like I'm not being creative enough when I do that, but those receiving the cards don't know that we may be using old techniques. All they know is that they have a pretty card. And yours sure is! I love how you cut out the patterned paper with a die. I wouldn't think to do that. Thanks so much for the inspiration, and thanks for sharing with us at Word Art Wednesday. We really appreciate you!

  6. Oh, and I forgot to say, good for you for all your leg pain. I have heard that the meniscus tear can be quite painful. You're an inspiration! :)
