Greet The Day With Gerber

This is a set that I won during last months release hop at Mark's Finest Paper. It is called "Greet The Day With Gerber". When I found out that I won, I had my fingers crossed that it would be a really versatile set. Faith makes it so you win a set from the upcoming release, then you don't have a clue. Boy, did I luck out, this is a beauty! Once it arrived, I was unsure if it was okay to use it right away. Today is the first day that their new sets have been revealed, and Day one of the reveal hop. I figured it was safe to post my card.

I created my card with soft sand and melon mambo card stock, and a piece of K&Co. designer paper. I stamped my image with Stazon and colored with SU inks and a water brush onto a piece of watercolor paper. I distress, wet and rolled the edges. I glued it onto the melon mambo panel and used staples to secure the corners. I tied on a piece of plaid, organza ribbon, fashioned a bow, and added pink buttons threaded with embroidery floss. I created a box around my sentiment with a Zig marker.

I would like to submit this card for the ribbon challenge at Create With Bubbe. That runs until Feb 14th

It's bitter cold here today and the wind is just whipping! I can take it since there is the promise of warmer weather this weekend! Wedding gown shopping on Saturday with my DD. That ought to be fun, huh? It is also a milestone birthday for her. I don't think she likes that part!

Thanks for coming by.
