My SFYTT card is doubling as my entry for TCP Tuesday this week. Yes, I realize Tuesday was "how many" days ago, but that's just the way life is right now...it takes me a few days to actually get a card made and that's just the way it is with a busy family right now. I'm ok with it...I think?! At times I get overwhelmed with all the new trends, products and ideas; feeling like the papercrafting world is passing me by, and that's when I repeatedly tell myself to "get over it" and "do whatcha can do when ya can do it!". So, I'll say it again in an attempt to truly convince myself that I'm ok with a little less stamping time right now: I'm ok with it, wink!Jen has provided us with a great sketch today, calling for embellishments on the upper left and lower right corners of the main image panel, so I did my best to follow the sketch, but I'm afraid I strayed a bit on the upper left--sorry! You see it goes like this: I picked up this cool K&Co. chipboard this week and just had to use it, but it sorta took over that upper left corner, making it difficult to follow the sketch completely. Rather than following the "double embellishment" from the sketch, I just kept adding stuff to my chipboard--cool ribbon from TayloredExpressions, a heart topped stick pin and two red buttons. I hope this isn't grounds for dismissal from the SFYTT team? If so, I'll have to call in a favor from my good bud, Carole to see if she'd plead my case, or would that be considered a conflict of interest as she's a member of the SFYTT team as well?! Ah, ya know I'm just kidding, I'm sure Jen won't mind, just this once??!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this! SO cute!
This is so cute! I don't think you strayed on the upper corner! I think it is a great interpretation! While I was laying in bed sick, I asked my DH to print out the sketch for me so I could sit and look at it and try and get ideas. When I was finally done with my card, I showed my DH who said, that doesn't look like the sketch I gave you...there aren't any stars on it! LOL! I think you did a great job and I am always thrilled to see what you come up with! As far as the stamping world passing you by, no...you are on top and always bring a fun, fresh approach! I love what you do!
Fabulous job! Loooove what you came up with! Thanks for playing along with TCP Tuesday :)
