Sending You Our Love and Support

 

The verse on this card reads “Sending You Our Love and Support”...a totally fitting sentiment and graphic for someone battling breast cancer. This hybrid card was creating using digital art, a digital diecut (svg art file) along with traditional stamping and floral diecuts from felt. Calling upon my favorite recipe for making cards, this card uses current digital art mixed with traditional card elements to add texture, interest and a customized card. The beauty of digi art is that you can size it down to fit exactly the size you want it. Nice, huh? Which is extra nice when you want to pair with an svg diecut frame, also sized to exactly the size I wanted. The flower diecuts are from Stampin' Up!®, Floral Fusion sizzlits die, paired with a small adhesive pearl and an SU stamped verse in pink ink. This makes for a clean, simple and cheery greeting for a friend battling a breast cancer diagnosis. 

Cancer comes in all forms and effects the lives of so many families. If you have been impacted by cancer or know someone who is beginning their journey, show your support for one of the many fundraising efforts out there. Our daughter Ashley's sorority is participating in Relay for Life in Boca Raton, FL. You can help her reach her personal fundraising goal by donating one day's lunch money, that Friday night pizza or weekend coffee or smoothie money. Every amount helps, and you can keep your donation anonymous. Click here for more information.

Creativity Interrupted

I started off the year with the awesome goal of doing a project a day...my Project 365 day challenge which turned into about a 180 something day challenge. Sometimes life just gets in the way of creativity and other priorities like family, health and other matters interrupt the creative process. I will still be sharing some of the projects created along the way.

So where has that creative energy been refocused? On photography and designing many new sets for my shop at Mygrafico.com. Recently, I was the featured designer in Mygrafico's post on CreatingtheHive.com. Click on the link to read the mini interview.
