Best Friends

Hello my lovely friends!

I had a good weekend but I didn't get to spend as much time as I would love to on crafting but starting this week or for the next couple of months, I will have plenty of time to spend on making cards (imagine the big grin on my face). Hubby just left to join his crew yesterday and won't be back till December. Of course I will miss him a lot during his absence but they said crafting is the best remedy to cure loneliness. I couldn't agree more :)

I'm here to share a mini card I made for a recent publication call which obviously is a reject. I submitted three mini cards but only one get picked so I'm still happy :) The sentiment sticker is from K&Co as well as the flower sticker which is made from vellum (isn't it cute?). The graph border die cut is part of the So Sophie collection by My Mind's Eye and they are available at Smidapaper.


Thanks for stopping! Have a great day!

  12. Such a lovely card Cindy! And I'm with you, I always get my crafting done when my hubby is working late or in the wee hours of the morning when all is quiet in the house. It's hard to get good crafting time with the house is busy. Hugs, Carly
