It's Your Day To Shine

Hello there!  It's been too long, and I've missed being here on the blog!

Let's get right to a card, okay?


I was in a clustery mood the day I made this.  Lots of little goodies were piled onto a doily die cut (Colorbok):  sequins, pearls, little roses, a shiny button.  A sentiment from Papertrey Ink's Lighten Up was stamped on a fancy tag die cut (Spellbinders) and nestled under that cluster.


The primary reasons for my absence here: not only is life in full swing with my job and my family, but my computer has been "sick" for quite some time.  I can't load any new photos on, or even photo-edit the ones I've got because of a computer-memory issue. (I've got memory issues of my own, but that's another story altogether.)  The repair man was supposed to have come this past weekend, but had to cancel, and we are rescheduled for his "house call" this weekend. Fingers crossed he can fix what ails this computer of ours!

I'm glad you still have some pretty cards all edited and ready to share, because I was missing you! I detest computer problems and I hope for your sake you can get it fixed soon. Your card is just beautiful! Such a pretty blue combined with the soft krafty color.

So pretty! Love the card jewelry and the design. I agree with Karin that it is STUNNING. So sorry I haven't kept up with everything - I took a little break myself and haven't completely got back in the swing of things. Hugz!!!
