Celebrate Every Single Day

There have been a lot of exciting things happening recently for my family.  For one, my husband celebrated our 21st anniversary this past Friday and with all the changes it has gotten me to thinking about our time together.  We've had a lot of up's and we've had our share of downs, but we've been able to get through all of them and still be happy.  This card was inspired by those thoughts.  Every day no matter what is handed to you should be a celebration either for it just being a good day or the fact you have gotten through it. 
 
I used a piece of the gorgeous german scrap from Altered Pages to place the  epoxy words from Glitz on which added to the beauty of the message and the card. I added the entire embellishment to the French Kiss paper after distressing the edges to give it a vintage feel and then added a couple of  soft pink brads to bring out the pink in the flowers.   All of these pieces together brought out the beauty of the card and made the message behind it really stand out.  Sometimes, the items you use help get the message of your card across.
 
Celebrate the day!  Create something, too!

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.

Full Circle

Hi all! Becky here today! I have been in a circle-mood lately & have been doing circles on everything! So why not do some circles with some of my Gelli Prints??? Here's a simple little card I made using 4 different circle punches, a black pen & some previously made Gelli prints! Hope you're enjoying Springtime in your area! Cheers!
