a favor or gift bestowed by God, thereby bringing happiness. What a beautiful sentiment. Isn't it? One of my favorite Melissa Frances rub-ons. This card is for this week's fabulous sketch over at PriscillaStyles home of the Midnight Madness Sketches. I LOVE this sketch. There are actually 2 sketches this week to choose from. I chose the more fancier one. I am loving these Maya Road Mini Kraft envelopes. They are so fun to work with.
For my card, I used some October Afternoon papers from the Fly A Kite line. As well as some seam binding ribbon, Prima Swirls with clay roses, MS punched butterflies, 2 paper doilies, glitter and some brads. Love this color combo!Here is the Sketch:I will be back later with another card using a MR Kraft envelope. I can't get enough!!
Finally, yesterday I was talking to myself, {which I find myself doing more and more of!} saying "This chair feels a little loose" Next thing I know my 4 yr old son, Antonio, goes upstairs and comes back down with his Handy Manny tool box. Takes out his tools and starts "fixing" the chair! I couldn't resist taking these photos! He is too much! Well, back to my house cleaning!! See you later!!Hugs...
