it's Imke's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Goodbye" (but don't worry, she's not going anywhere!) which means she wants to see those projects in a farewell theme....it could be a retirement or moving or graduation or......
....in sympathy. I tend to keep my sympathy cards simple, this one's a little more....more....than usual. Image was a freebie from Artherapie, but I noticed afterward I could have just used patterned paper and could have achieved the same look....though I don't think I have any paper that's this classy & pretty. Sentiment stamp is from MFT. And, that little felt bird is from a pack of embellishments that I picked up from Michaels eons ago. Like, back when I used to buy embellishments because I thought I'd use 'em. Now I just internally pterodactyl scream at myself if I even look at a pack of embellishments while I think of the clogged drawer in my crafting area that is bulging with packages of pretties I don't really even have any intention of ever using. Well, unless it's buttons or bling. But those get stored in a different spot so it's okay to still buy them. Paper flowers also go in a different spot but it's NOT OKAY to still buy them. Just making sure I get that out there so myself doesn't try to find a loophole with that.
Why don't you give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up? And, while you're there, be sure to check out the fabulous projects the other Girlfriends have created.

Your card is so elegant and classy indeed! And the little felt bird is the perfect touch! I have too many unused embellishments as well. They do a fabulous job embellishing my drawers though!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Janice. I pray you don't have to use it any time soon. Doesn't it feel good using those adtohaves from yesteryear? I'm on the same quest. I'm going to give the pterodactyl scream a try.
ReplyDeleteA very elegant, simple sympathy card, Jan, as is appropriate to the situation. I panicked there for a minute, I thought the challenge was shutting down! Phewwwww...relieved.
