Farewell Week at TTIC… *sniff*

Most of us plateau when we lose the tension between where we are and where we ought to be. ~ John Gardiner

 Doesn’t this say it all?

Yes, this is the week of bittersweet good-byes over at the Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge blog. I know there are a lot of tears and I can say that our design team is handling this last week with such grace and strength. None of us are very thrilled with saying good-bye and we’re all trying to be as positive as possible!! So!!! We’re giving away a lot of blog candy this week to help ease the pain! Be sure to check that out so you can grab some Twilight prizes!!

I apologize for being so late today with posting my final sketch. We made a last minute decision last week to move and now we’re scrambling to pack and take care of our biz. I am beginning to believe I’m channeling Zsadist from the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Or maybe even Phury… if you haven’t read either of these books, suffice it to say I seem to be masochistic lately!

Ok, so on to my project. Dani is giving away blog candy for participants who do this sketch so be sure to check out the details here:  Dani’s Farewell Sketch Challenge

I had to alter up the sketch a little. My apologies to Dani! Being in a rush with this moving thing isn’t conducive to accurate sketch representations! The designer paper and double dot card stock is BoBunny. The rest is all PTI. I <3 you PTI. Have I said that before?? Sorry for keeping this short my friends. I’ve got to return to my mess…

I have finally been able to make my card for the Twilight Tuesday Sketch Challenge #14.

I’m really excited to do this challenge so let’s take a look:

Here is Dani’s sketch.

It’s a cute sketch, huh?

Thanks for making it Dani!

 

 

 

Here is my card. I’m very excited about this card. The designer paper I’ve used is from BoBunny’s fall 2009 line and it is scrumptious!!! Take a look at this line, Love Bandit. You are truly going to love it! Since leaving Stampin’ Up!, this is my “go to” line of paper. I adore it!!!

I used Flamingo and Strawberry Double Dot heavy weight paper. BoBunny’s “heavy weight paper” is basically card stock. It’s nice. Now, personally, I like my card bases to use a slightly heavier weight card stock and this is where the ultra fab PaperTrey Ink comes in. I simply make my design, and then adhere it to a PTI base. However, this is purely a personal choice.

I’ll tell ya what. That Donna sure can change a girl’s life. I’m totally married to my heat tool for embossing my sentiments now. I’m not so sure how well you can see the embossing in this picture, but it’s there. The trick for me, was using Versafine Onyx ink. That was the total difference. Thank you, Donna!!

The sentiment is from Just Rite Stampers. I like these stamps and am trying them out a bit to see if I’m interested in carrying them in my store.

The crystal bling is from Close to My Heart. The butterflies are from Sizzix via Stampin’ Up!.

Beautiful paper stampers. You really need to try this stuff!
