IB162 Quote Me

Hi everyone!  Happy Thursday!  Time for a new Inspired By challenge!  Here's our prompt and the optional sketch:



Oh my, this little Pooh image brings back such memories!  I remember reading Winnie the Pooh as a child and thinking the same thing..."I wish this book would just go on and on and not be over!"  I don't have any Pooh stamps so I thought I would choose a Bible verse for my "quote"...I had this Inky Antics Songbird stamp, and I paired it with some pretty Bo Bunny Felicity papers:



I stamped the bird and branches in Smoky Slate directly on the DSP, then stamped the sentiment on top, using Tranquil Tide ink, stamping it again in Versamark and heat-embossing it in clear embossing powder.  It stood out much better once I embossed it!


My final addition was a couple of little banners at the bottom along with a shabby seam binding bow in  Soft Sky, adhered to the top left corner.  

I hope you'll find a nice quote or saying for our challenge this week...I am really looking foward to seeing what everyone comes up with!  Share it with us at Inspired By and check out the cute things the DT stamped as well!

I hope I'm not boring you with all our snowy pictures, but I wanted to share with you a video Cassidy took of us sledding.....it's a little wobbly and it's not been edited, so just take it as it is!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Your card is so pretty, LeAnne! I love the soft pastel colors and your beautiful seam binding bow! Your sledding video just made me smile! Looked like so much fun and it looks like today will be another snow day. It's really coming down here!

I'm quite sure that signature LeAnne bow is what brought me to your blog the first time, my friend!
I love everything about your card today, allowing the darling bird to sing backup to this wonderful Bible verse!
Thanks, Cassidy, for taking us all along on your sledding adventure with Grammy, and Grampy! Hope your leg is okay, Gram!

Great video Cassidy, I don't know how to take a video and I am in my 70's. We don't have snow where I live, it looks like lots of fun. Stay safe.
