Quote of the Week

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

A Whimsy Challenge

 

This is a card I made for the challenge I am posting on the Whimsy Inspirations Blog.  You can check out the details over there.  I made this for a boy named David.  I chose him because of his name ( my husband's), the fact that he has migraines (so do I), and his diagnosis affects his memory.  He struggles in school.  This made me think of my son.  So this card is for him.  You can read about David HERE.
  I used the Whimsy Lion for this card.   I also recently got the Early Bird Kit by Cosmo Cricket.  On the cover it has samples of all the paper and features in the kit.  I couldn't bear to let is go to waste.  So I cut the sample strips out and used them on my card.    I think this card ended up pretty cheery looking.  Please remember that only happy cards should be sent to these children.  I hope you will join in the challenge.  It would mean so much to a little, special someone.
BTW, I put, "Hope you have a GRRRREAT day!" on the inside.  I hope YOU also have a grrrreat day!

Whimsy Release Sneek Peak

 

Today I'm showing you a peek at one of the new releases from Whimsy.  You can join us tomorrow for the Magical Mythical Tour Blog Hop and have a chance to win some Whimsy  $$$$.  Sound fun?   The hop starts tomorrow at NOON.  You can find the blog hop order on the Whimsy blog.

I used some of that really fun paper by Cosmo Cricket called, " Earth Love."

I wanted to show you a detailed shot of the fairy's dress.  I used a Copic Spica glitter marker.  It's hard to see the subtle shimmer.  I also used stickles on her wings.  Every fairy should sparkle.

 

See you back here tomorrow for the hop!
