A very dear friend of mine is due to have her first baby the beginning of September. She is an insulin-dependent diabetic and was diagnosed with high blood pressure back in June, so she has been "sentenced" to bed rest for the past 5 or 6 weeks. Needless to say, she gets a little stir crazy sometimes! Here is a card that I'm sending her to let her know that I'm thinking about her.
This card is a modified version of one that I have done before (check out my post of Cuttlebugged cards). I swapped out the flowers for a hand print and I switched up the colors a bit...
I used my Cuttlebug to emboss a piece of Basic Gray cardstock and then layered that on to a piece of Bordering Blue. I inked the handprint from the I'm Here stamp set with the Bordering Blue Classic Stampin' Pad, stamped off once and then stamped onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the greeting from the retired Sell-A-Bration set, Happy Harmony, with the Basic Gray Classic Stampin' Pad. I used the oval Coluzzle template to cut out the handprint. Add some sheer white organdy ribbon and Basic Gray taffeta ribbon and the project is complete!
Its a WRECK! There are stamps, ink pads, and wheels everywhere! Its a good thing that I got some blog pics done, because this mess is a total creative block.
It took me a couple of days to make this mess and it will take me at least a couple of hours to recover from it!
