May All Your Dreams Come True - Be Careful What You Dream!!

Thursday, December 12, 2019
So this is what happened yesterday - Fusion of the big toe, left foot. this is the 4th surgery on this area which all started with a bunion problem.  Let's all hope and pray that it is the LAST!!
 Thought I would go home with a "boot" or a "shoe" but ended up with a huge cast
 It goes all the way up to my knee

And this is my view for 17 - yes, SEVENTEEN days!! I can only let it dangle for 10 minutes or less so basically I can get up to go to the bathroom.  When I get sick of my bed I might sit in the living room for short spells
After 17 days I can get around more but total no weight bearing is 8 weeks!
I was SOOOOO blessed that not one, but two of our pastors showed up in the morning before we left for the surgery center to read scripture and pray over me.

The dogs thought that they were here to visit them.
Didn't get a picture of our lead teaching Pastor because he was behind me - laying his hands on me and praying, and Dale didn't think to snap a photo, but this is Keoni, our lead teaching pastor

The great thing was that last Sunday he spoke about Jesus - Mighty God - Isaiah 9:6
He is the MIGHTY CALMER, the MIGHTY HEALER, our MIGHT DEFENDER, and our MIGHTY CONQUEROR.
At one point in the sermon he said "why aren't we lining up come to an elder meeting to have them pray over us?"  You can view this sermons HERE
Funny (but not so funny) story is that my hubby had a dream prior to the surgery date where the doctor came out after the surgery and said "I'm sorry, we weren't able to save her toe - we had to cut it off" - we had a good laugh about that one! Good thing not all our dreams come true!  When he texted them after surgery he told them "good news - she still have 5 toes!)
So I just had to make up this card using the LEAVE A LITTLE SPARKLE Stamp Set combined with the STILL SCENES Bundle.
I thought the sentiment: "Make Your Dreams Come True" was so funny in regards to Dale's dream, and this shaker card is truly a step above card.
This card was inspired by Mikaela who is one the the ARTISAN designers with Stampin' Up! This group of stampers are what I consider to be "a cut above". It was fun to recreate this card.
What I changed up was to add the SUBTLE Embossing Folder to the front piece of Whisper White (4 x 5-1/4)
Here are the products used on this card:
Stamp Sets: Leave a Little Sparkle, Still Scenes
Paper: Purple Posy, Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Silver Foil
Ink: Memento, Basic Black, Versa Mark
Stampin' Blends: So Saffron light, Flirty Flamingo light, Pool Party dark
Tools: Snow Globe Scenes Dies, Snowglobe Shaker Domes, Heat Tool, Clear Embossing Powder, Iridescent Sequin Assortment, Wink Of Stella, Whisper White Twine, Frosted Flower Embellishments, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Stampin' Dimensionals, Ice Stampin' Glitter

Playing with Unicorns!

Tuesday, July 9, 2019
I just HAD to have the LEAVE A LITTLE SPARKLE Stamp Set because of the word phrase "Leave a little Sparkle wherever you go", because Gracie's dance studio is called Sparkling Angel Dance Studio and I thought it would be perfect for the cards that I make her.
ALSO, unicorns seem to be pretty popular right now and I wanted to make some up to sell in the stores.
I ran across some cute large Unicorn candy bars so thought I would make up a fun treat using the LEAVE A LITTLE SPARKLE Stamp Set. 
 I made my own designer paper using the BABY WIPE TECHNIQUE
I chose Melon Mambo, Pool Party & Daffodil Delight
The STAMPIN' BLENDS that I used to color the unicorn are Real Red Light, Daffodil Delight Dark, Mango Melody dark, and Pool Party dark.
Of course I had to make a coordinating card to go with it!
The base is Pool Party embossed with the Quilt Top Embossing Folder (R), a piece of Poppy Parade card stock 4-7/8" x 3-5/8"
The Whisper White piece is also 4-7/8" x 3-5/8"
And although you cannot see it from these photos I spritzed everything with CHAMPAGNE SHIMMER PAINT mixed with Rubbing Alcohol.
This is a second version of the Unicorn candy bar treat. Which one do you like better?

Sparkling Angel, Sentimental Sunday

Sunday, June 16, 2019
Yesterday Gracie had her dance recital.
When the new catalog came out I knew that I needed to purchase the BORN TO SHINE Stamp Set so that I could make Gracie a card after her amazing performance.

The older she gets the more dances she is in.
This year she was in 4 dances, each one so amazing. A solo to HOMESICK, a trio to UNFINISHED, & a group number to SHAKE.
Her duet was to I CAN ONLY IMAGINE by Mercy Me and it was dedicated to her Grandma Great (my mom) who passed away last October. She would have loved to see Gracie dance! but so glad that my dad was with us.
This girl is the most comfortable when she is performing.
Stay tuned for next week to see what/where she is performing next.
The other stamp set that I used is called LEAVE A LITTLE SPARKLE, and the words were perfect for her because her dance studio is called "Sparkling Angel Dance Studio".
And who doesn't love a cute unicorn!!
I used a sketch challenge from Dawn Griffiths. These are so helpful when creating a card from scratch.

Everyone who places an ONLINE ORDER  (minimum $50) during the month of June you will receive 1 FREE package of the NEW 2019-2020 In Color Faceted Dots
Faceted, adhesive-backed dots: 90 pieces: 6 each of 5 colors in 3 size. 4mm, 6mm, 8mm In Pretty Peacock, Purple Posy, Rococco Rose, Seaside Spray, Terracotta Tile.
