My husband and I are in the exciting (and a bit stressful) process of buying a new home. That also means we're in the process of selling our home. Our realtor has *suggested* that I turn my studio back into a dining room ... which means at this point, about half of my art supplies are packed-up in the garage for moving.
This also means that my creativity is going to have to get a bit more *creative* over the next few months as I find ways to craft with the supplies I still have at hand.
I wanted to join in the very first Poppy Sketches Challenge ... my first thought was to use a border punch (all packed away) or maybe some decorative scissors (packed away) ... so instead I just used a single flower, with a cool metallic brad that I've hoarded for way too long.
I love these colors together ... they are all over my studio (now my dining room). I decided to feature a combination of Cosmo Cricket word stickers that I found inspiring (and that were on my dining room table) ... doesn't everyone have stickers on their dining room table?
This is such a beautiful card Stef with a beautiful message! Congrats on your new house, boo to moving! Thanks for playing at Poppy Sketches!

Hi Stef,
Lovely card! i like that you went a different route with the sentiments!
Ha, we just bought a brand new home 2 wks ago - it's a lot of work picking everything that will go into the home, but fun and hectic at times, but in the end it's worth it! Good luck :)
