Hi everyone! Yay, it's Friday and we have a quiet weekend planned after a busy week! I made another Christmas card using the current Freshly Made Sketches sketch:
I have barely used Carols of Christmas, so I pulled it out along with the Merry Music Specialty DSP to create my really simple monchromatic card:
I am still on the fence about stamping the big sentiment on the DSP, but I really wanted to highlight these papers, so I just went with it! I added a vellum layer so that the words could show through from the black paper, and just to break up the plainness, I added a strip of Silver Foil along with a rhinestone-embellished star:
I also rounded the opposite corners of each of the panels, since it was a fairly plain card, just to give it a little more interest! So happy you popped it today!
I don't have any Cassidy pictures today, but I thought I would show you the progress on the kitchen! These pictures are a little rough as the sun was not cooperative! The paint on the walls really does not look green, it is more a grayish-blue, but the cabinets are pretty spot on:
We are getting a quartz countertop, which will be measured on Tuesday and maybe it will be installed before Thanksgiving! I am keeping my fingers crossed! And here's what the flooring now looks like:
We are thrilled with it so far!! I will be happy to get my kitchen back in the house, it's getting pretty cold out in that garage, LOL! Have a wonderful day and be blessed!
