Hello friends. I hope you are having a great weekend. It's another beautiful, sunny and warm day here in Florida. These aren't the colors I had planned to use when I made this card, but I'm glad I changed my mind and did something a bit different. The digital image is a beautiful freebie from Sugar Creek Hollow.
I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils, chalks and my clear Stardust pen. If you look closely you can see that I embellished the heart with approx. 63 tiny pearls and one of the beautiful pearl stick pins, which my sister sent me. I added a dragonfly punch and Prima flowers to the card itself.
Challenges:
This is a fun set of Q&A from my friend, Bri's blog. Feel free to copy it and use it on your blog, if you'd like.
Do you have any pets?
I have a sweet, little Maltese/Yorkie mix dog named Princess, who was a gift from my sister. My nieces named her Princess and she has lived up to her name. The household pretty much revolves around her. lol Most days I watch my grand-dog, Caesar, who is a darling little Lhasa Apso. They are great company for me. Name 3 things that are physically close to you.
My laptop, my blanket, the phone.
What's the weather like right now?
Sunny and warm!!!
Have you ever been in a car crash?
Yes, it lead to my becoming disabled.
What time did you wake up this morning?
6:00a.m. because I forgot to turn the weekday alarm off. Silly me! But, after convincing the dog that we weren't getting up, I went back to sleep. :)

- We watched the space shuttle launch safely the other day. A plane load of sky divers jumped at the time of the launch, so that they could watch it from the air. Wouldn't that be amazing? We had quite a show with the space shuttle and the sky divers. :)
