Hello there...the weather has been dreary and cold with lots of rain and has made me a little crazy the last few days. I am also blaming it for making me sick...I think I just have a cold or an allergy/cold combo but nonetheless it is A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G! I need some sunshine and warmth stat! Anyhow I have a couple of cousins graduating from college this year and this sentiment from Stampendous kinda seemed appropriate for a big life change like that. So, I layered it with some text and a pretty tile background (both from Stampendous) and layered on some pretty patterned paper, just love this collection from Lilly Bee. A very simple card finished off with a few jewels and a ric rac border (which is a velvet sticker from Stampendous).
Supplies: Stamps - Dream Text Background, Tiled Quad Cube, Dream Forever (Stampendous); Ink - Spring Pansy (Versamagic), Peeled Paint, Barn Door (Ranger); Cardstock - SS White, Simple Chartreuse (PTI); Patterned Paper - Picket Fence Collection (Lilly Bee); Other - Velvet Ric Rac (Stampendous), Adhesive Rhinestones (Hero Arts)
Thanks for visiting today, wishing you warm weather and happiness wherever you are!
I love that you combined these two stamps! Great idea!

This is a great sentiment. Love the vibrant colors you used as well. I am with you. I am ready for sunshine and warmth but everyone here tells us there is always one last May blizzard. Today, it is raining.

Lovely card! Like the sentiment and how it is layered on top of the other designs. Dreary here too but we really need this moisture! Rain, hail, thunder and now snow. Hope you feel better soon!
