Happy New Year! I hope it is starting off wonderfully for you. Already we had three snow days! I love my kiddos but I honestly was looking forward to some time to craft. Heehee... but I know I will wish I had more days at home with them once they are all grown up. So I'll have to imagine myself in the future so that I can look back in hindsight and be thankful for these extra three days. Only my children can make me smile and scream sigh in the same breath.
Here is my take on the challenge using a new release from ODBD:

Yes, children are the joys of our lives...we love them with all our hearts and can't imagine our lives without them ....but they are also exhausting and challenging at times. LOL!
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful!! I just love the purple, your framing of the sentiment with the shading and elegant die and your added details. Beautiful!!

Ah, Diana, I can only imagine three snow days in a row! And, yes, one day you will look back and yearn for more days with them. But enjoy them now, as challenging as it can be!
ReplyDeleteWell, I agree with Chris; your card is beautiful! I just love the beautiful shades of lavender and this wonderful Scripture verse! So precious, and I just love how we are friends through ODBD! You are a special blessing to me, and i just love to see your beautiful work, which reflects your love for the Lord. Warm hugs, sweet friend!
So pretty Diana!! Love the colors you've used and the roses with pearls!!! WOW!!! Love the scripture too. It all works together so beautifully!
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning card, Diana. I love the soft sweet hues of purple you've used, and all the elegant touches. A truly amazing card. I also wanted to congratulate you on starting your blog. I hope you enjoy having a blog.

ReplyDeleteLol! I know what you mean about the kids! Beautiful, full of fun and laughter and it's wonderful to see the world through their eyes - but exhausting and frustrating at the same time! :-) Love you card. Gorgeous colours and love the added touches with the pearls, flowers and bow.
