~ Thinking of You ~ friendship card

Thank you dears for your kind words on the yester-eve... I am excited with you for the coming days. Life has been rushing at a too-hurried pace, and I need to stop and catch a breath once in a while... like tonight. Before bed.


I've {painfully} resolved to improve my photography this year... mostly because I hate to irk you with terrible photos. But... where to start? The more I mess with them, the worse they look! ah well.

Creating with pretty doilies, and sweet Melissa Frances paper.


and a glittered sparrow from an etsy purchase... a card for a dear friend who's living far, far away in America... miss her!


I'm in love with glitter hearts - handcut. No other way but this one for me: snip and trim. A chipboard swirl, buttons, vintage trim, scrunched seam binding which I finally caved in and got... and other little bits and bobs. Love the tags too.


 (see what I mean? Horrid photo...)

An extra-large card for an extra-special friend... from me and my sisters.
And, with the bitty scraps, I pulled out a Maya Road envelope and ...



Just big enough to hold a bitty glassine bag filled with goodies...


......

And, lastly, with my lack of photography skills hanging over my head... I created a treasury on etsy with the sweetest colors and photos.... check it out here.

see you then!
