Grow old along with me.....

......the best is yet to be.

Another card to set out at the rehearsal party.  This is an old quote and I forgot who said it.  Next time I would like to do in pinks and browns. "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue."  Well, these are older people and I thought this card  complimented yesterday's card with the children.  Well, I'm doing the rehearsal party so I can do what I want...right?  haha  Off and running this morning.  Get to meet some new future in-laws today, bridal luncheon, hair done, rehearsal party tonight and a big glass of wine!  

5x5, Mo Manning image, scraplifted inspiration was Wahoo Haven

Getting married means.......

....sharing your toys.

My son is getting married this weekend.  I wanted a few cards to set around at the rehearsal party tomorrow night.  Here is one.  It's a Mo Manning image.  Folks...I'm bow-legged tired and there's more to do tomorrow.

5x5  Inspiration was Joeys World of Stuff blog

Planting A Seed.... (+ freebie)

...of Friendship.....(inside) Reaps a bouquet of Happiness!  This is a card I made while at the beach.  The image is a Mo Manning called Sprout...it was in the "Help for Katie" collection and is not in store, but she has wonderful images at her store, Digital Pencil Too.
       I wanted to show you the difference  lighting can make on a card, but you already know that since you do cards too. It's a little frustrating..not only do I want to make fun and/or pretty cards, but I must be a professional photographer to exhibit my cards and not attract to the tiny flaws....haha

INSIDE: just picked one of my pansies (5x5 card)  Copic markers

OUTSIDE: sitting in my pot of pansies sitting on my front steps

The 5 day freebie is an svg I made this morning looking at an old 1880 brass oil lamp.  ( I stretched  it to fit better on my pending card....you can make it thinner again if you wish in SCAL or MTC.) Writing is in another language with diamond shape for O's in the words....humm

(Note:  unless you make the lamp larger, omit the little piece that looks like a ladder)
