Nose to Nose card



I made this card using the adorable Crissy Armstrong digital image called "Nose to Nose.  Guess who she's nose to nose with?  A sweet sweet sweet little puppy, of course.  You can find this image at Whimsy Stamps.   I made this as my last Design Team card for Sundays with Crissy.  Sadly I have to say goodbye to these wonderful, caring ladies & the amazingly talented Crissy.  I have so much on my plate these days with my hubby & family that I had to make the sad decision to step down.  But don't worry..........I'll still be making cards.  Gotta have my card therapy.......right?  LOL  Anywho...........you still have time to pop on over to the Sundays with Crissy challenge blog to enter your "animal" creation.


My daughter just had spinal fusion surgery (her second) followed by a scary blood transfusion a few days later but PTL is home now where I can take good care of her.  So this card is for her.  The little cutie with the bare feet reminds me so much of my Kimmie when she was a little girl.  She is colored with my Copics (Skin: E000, E00, R20 ~ Hair: E34, E37, E53 ~ Puppy:  E53 & E30) and paper pieced with my NitWits digital papers.  The background paper is from a My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pad called "Lost & Found Two".  All of the embellies (lacey flowers, bling, seam binding & scroll) are from my stash.

Hi sweetie! Sorry it's been so long since I've been by to visit. I just don't get much time for blogging for fun anymore. :( I love your beautiful card! Your coloring is gorgeous and those papers are yummy delicious!!! So sorry you're having to step down from your team, but totally understand. Family does come first. :) I'll keep your daughter in my prayers that she has a full and speedy recovery.

Hi Sharron, thanks for stopping by my blog, and for following me of course. I read your post and it saddened me a bit because here I am starting out on DT for the first time you are stepping down. You have good reason to for sure with your daughter's health of course. That is quite the surgery, I may have to have one of those too some day. I have a neurological disorder that required the removal of several vertebrae in my neck, if I have to lose one more than I will need that for stability. Please take care of yourself while you are looking after your family too. God bless. Sandra:)S
