I've used elements from Lettering Delights in my card. WHICH in case you were wondering is the Candy that's handy! Be a follower and comment on this post and you will automatically be entered for the drawing. I will be giving two $5.00 gift certificates to two lucky winners, (whew that's alot of T's). Make sure I know who you are, I will announce the winner on Monday.
Okay all that noise aside let's get to the FUN stuff...This little big card I made for my sister in-law. She is very sweet to me, is always ready to listen, and I know she's on my side. Shouldn't we all have a sister just like her?
I used Lettering Delights Card E (now in hindsight I should've placed my designs in the horizontal plane so she could stand it up, BUT remember it is ME we're talking about.

Wow...I'm your first comment... Woo Hoo! I love the blue and colors of this card. I also love how you "edit-undo'" the lettering. I do that ALL the time. Great job on your beautiful card. Thanks so much for being part of our blog hop.
ReplyDeleteLOL! You're so funny! I must agree with you that you made a great decision to change the word color from pink to blue. I think that it is pretty and your sister-in-law is going to appreciate that! Better make sure that she doesn't see the card before she gets it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, I love all the detail
ReplyDeleteThere sure is a lot of work in this one. Very creative!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. Thanks for sharing.

very nice!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! And yes, the blue letters were better than the pink ones... It is dangerous to sleep on a card, usually when you look at it with fresh eyes you go "whaaaat??".
ReplyDeleteI love all your layering, the stuff I stink at, LOL :-D
I am now a follower. Thank you for you little video. I have some stuff from lettering delights that was free. (I never turn down free items even if I cant use them yet cause you never know,) but didnt know how they really worked. So thank you

That is a beautiful card. I am still learning about using SCAL and all the svg files. I discovered Lettering Delights just recently and have been stalking their site trying to pace myself from buying up all their goodies at once. Love the blog and thanks for the chance!

Great video. I never thought about using MS Word with digital papers and I waste ages in Photoshop.
ReplyDeleteI will be watching this one a few times and plan on using MS Word from now on, thank you.
