A Fall Acorn Card


 This the last of the lost cards. I loved this Tilda  and thought she had to be done with fall colors. The acorns are die cut with a CC cutter. The paper is a single sheet I bought three years ago and I have been hoarding it, waiting for just the right card to come along. What do you think was this one it? I hope you have enjoyed looking at my 'forgotten' stack. I have said before ..... I am ahead of the game. LOL! Enjoy the blessings you have today. 
                                                          My Song: Shout To The Lord
Shout to the Lord, all the earth,
Let us sing
Power and majesty, praise to the King;
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name.
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands,
Forever I'll love You, forever I'll stand,
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You.
My Jesus, My Savior,
Lord, there is none like You;
All of my days
I want to praise
The wonders of Your mighty love.

I Hope You Dance


When my daughter was little she took ballet, tap and jazz dance lessons. She was so cute up on stage dancing and doing her little programs. I think that is why this is one of my favorite Tilda images. I added lots of liquid pearls, and stickles. The paper lace is a Magnolia die and is one of my favorites. I spent forever picking my paper and then covered most of it up....does that make any since at all? This is one more of the lost cards. but I know it will be  a card that finds a home with my daughter....just to brighten her day. 
I want to point out her hair....I am so jazzed as I think I am beginning to get the hang of it....lol....for those of you who find it easy to color hair....argh....I don't!  Have a great week and enjoy the challenges that come your way!
My Song: I Hope You Dance
I  hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance

Life Is A Zoo!



I don't know why, but I love making Christmas cards. I think it might be the colors of Christmas that seem so bright and pretty. This cute little image is a Sugar Nellie  and I love it. I think I might have gone a little overboard on my 'glitter', but it was fun having all that sparkle flying about! I also used some fun flock...not so fun having it fly about as it makes me sniff and sneeze. My snowflakes are also covered with glitter, except for the one inside the spellbinders frame and it is iridescent. My sentiment is from LOTV and I love these sentiments. I used a red and glitter spica pen to add a bit of bling to the sentiment. I added some ribbon...and speaking of ribbon our sponsor for this challenge is
they have some yummy ribbons! Our Challenge this time at ABC is "Z" (I can't believe we have gone through the alphabet already!) ...back to"Z" for zoo! We want to see animals on your cards...not butterflies or bugs.....animals. I can't wait to see what you come up with! Also, don't forget the DT call for ABC....it is a great team to be a part of and I know you will love the fun challenges. Go to ABC's bolg and enter an "Anything Goes" card....blessings to you!
I am entering this card at the following challenges:
 
My Song: If I Could Talk to The Animals
If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it,
Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee,
Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah,
What a neat achievement it would be!
If we could talk to the animals, learn their languages,
Maybe Take an animal degree,
I'd study elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle,
Alligator, guinea pig, and flea!
