Timeless Tuesday #104 Button Up

This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge was to use buttons. I saw a bunch of purple tulips while I was doing my grocery shopping. I thought they looked so pretty, even though I'm not normally drawn to purple... I think it was because it means that spring is on the way! *grin*

Stamps: Thank You Flourishes
C/S: Orchid Opulence, New Leaf, white
copics, oval nestabilities, green buttons, white grosgrain ribbon colored with copic

Flourishes Timeless Tuesday FTTC93

This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge was to Get Those Christmas Cards done. I'm trying to keep my cards a little more simple so they not only go together faster, but also don't require any extra postage to mail. It's amazing how fast the postage adds up!

FTTC70 Timeless Tuesday Black & White + 1

This week's Timeless Tuesday challenge was right up my alley... black & white + 1 color... and yet it still took me 2 days to get it to where I was somewhat happy with it. At one point, my 6 year old said, "Are you going to upload THAT one????" When I told him that I wasn't, he replied, "Oh, good!" If I want an honest opinion, I know that he is the go to person!!! :D

FTTC60 Inspiration Geranium

After the previous boy post, I decided I needed to go the opposite & went with pink for the geraniums. The geraniums on my deck that the raccoon ate were supposed to look like these.

I made this card for this week's Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge. It was a Inspiration Challenge, you can see it here I chose the bottom photo. I liked the pink flowers on the bedspread & the square tiles on the floor.

Timeless Tuesday #54 It's All About Me

When I saw today's Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge, I decided to use the asters from the Calendar set 3. I haven't used these yet. I have a love/hate relationship with these Asters.

A lady I worked with in my first job after college, had beautiful Mexican Asters in her yard. She would bring in bouquets weekly for months. She shared some of her seeds with me. I followed her directions to a "T" & my plants didn't do anything. She gave me seeds every year for the 4 years I worked with her & they NEVER did grow for me. Hers seemed to do better each year. *sigh*

I've got all kinds of seeds planted & plants ready to go into pots, I might see if I can find some Mexican Aster seeds & try my hand at them again. At least with this stamp, I can create a beautiful bouquet even if I can't grow them! *wink*

Timeless Tuesday Challenge

This week's Timeless Tuesday Challenge is in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month. We were to use pink on our cards. This is something that is near & dear to my heart. I have had several family members that have had breast cancer. Make sure you do a self-breast exam & if you are old enough to do a mammogram, please get yourself checked. (I apologize for the poor picture quality. I need to figure out a better lighting system. )
