I had fully intended to make 4, but we are getting new tile tomorrow and are moving everything around today to get ready. DH only gave me a little time to make cards today - bummer.
My image is from LilyPink Designs and is available as part of a wonderful Christmas set (unbelievably well priced). I plan to use this set a lot this year. I colored the image with Copics and Spicas - the card shimmers a bunch but you can't see it in my horrible picture. I am addicted to Spicas now - should never have purchased those things!!! My wire is from my daughter's guitar - her boyfriend replaced the wires and they gave me the old ones knowing I love to upcycle.
Congrats on your FS day Jean - your gallery is super fun and I loved playing in there!

Hey....what's with the DH, huh? Lol! Sister, we need cardin' time, right? Gorgeous case, and know you'll bust out the other three soon. Upcycling...you are the master! Love this case my friend, and your genius use of paper-n-ink! LYMIMIMIMI

So cute. Love that sentiment. You can catch up with your cardmaking after that lovely tile is down. Such a sweet DH. A lot of work now, but worth it in the end.

Zing went the STRINGS of my heart (and your daughter's guitar)! This is lovely. I love the way you think AND design. Great sentiment and colors. Thank you for honoring me.

I love this image and sentiment. It makes you stop and think about the needless hustle and bustle of the Holiday season. It's only Christmas-sit down-relax-and enjoy! I should make about 60 of these....lol
