This week’s Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge is issued by the awesome Alison! Here is what Alison has to say:
Hello Everybody! It’s no secret that Breaking Dawn is my favorite book in the series. So, now that it’s my turn to create a challenge (which I am SO excited about!), of course I would pull something from that book!
Spoiler Alert! If you haven’t read Breaking Dawn, then stop reading this post and pick up that book! Then, you can come back and read the post, and complete the challenge! 
One of the things I love the most about Breaking Dawn are Jacob’s chapter titles. They’re hilarious!
My favorite is: “What do I look like? The Wizard of Oz? You Need a Brain? You Need a Heart? Go Ahead. Take Mine. Take Everything I Have.” Chapter 17, page 329
This chapter title perfectly depicts what Jacob is going through but in a sarcastic, tough, Jacob kinda way. So, here’s the scoop. We’ve all been on the giving and receiving end of many things, and I’m not talking about presents. We have given our “all” (or someone has given us their “all” for us) just because we love them so much. Jacob loves Bella with everything he has and would give it all to her because of it. There is nothing he wouldn’t do for her; that’s definitely made clear in this chapter!
Comment portion: Who have you given your all to? Your kids? Your best friend? Who’s given their all to you? Your parents? A doctor? Tell us about that special relationship where someone has gone as far as they could with the gift of themselves.
Project portion: Show us who has given you their everything or who you’ve given your everything to. Make a layout showing it, or a card to give that person, or even a gift just to say “thanks” or “I love you with all that I have.”

Whoa. That’s a profound challenge isn’t it! And, I have to fully admit, Jacob’s chapter titles are hilarious. I highly value the relationships in my life so I try to give a lot of myself to everyone I’m in relationship with. That doesn’t always work, I admit. But without a doubt, relationships are extremely important to me. I think I’ve given my “all” to two people in my life. The type of “all” that leaves you thinking…”there was absolutely nothing more that I could’ve done.” But obviously, I’m thinking of two distinct situations. Both people are still in my life so I’m not finished with either yet. So how can I say I’ve given them my “all” when the relationships aren’t over?
Anyway, let’s see my project.
Hope Happens. Need I say more?
I distressed this card using Basic Brown Stampin’ Up! ink. A lot of the supplies are discontinued SU! stuff: Parisian Breeze specialty paper, Chocolate Chip wide ribbon, and wire. I also used an embellishment from my stash, Nestabilities, and kraft ribbon.
Here is a closer look at the butterfly and “hope happens” sentiment.
And here is the embellishment I added. Now stampers, I need some help. How do I set these types of embellishments (preferably with my Crop-a-dile) without damaging it?
