• Upload your creation to Pals Paper Arts by Tuesday, November 3 (Noon CST)
• If you upload to an online gallery, enter PPA14 in the keyword section

This card set was created using the Ribbon of Hope and Hope Happens stamp sets.  

The silver skinny tin houses all 4 cards and coordinating envelopes perfectly.  I used the whisper white note cards and envelopes for my card set.  They are a bit smaller than the average card - sized at 5" x 3 1/2" folded.

Pals Paper Arts (PPA13)

Pals Paper Arts challenge #13 is locked and loaded!

Come Play @ PPA:

• Create "Anything But a Card"
  
• Upload your creation to Pals Paper Arts by Tuesday, October 27 (Noon CST)
• If you upload to an online gallery, enter PPA13 in the keyword section
• Most importantly ... come play with us!

I started off my project by making this pretty Night & Day Designer Paper bow.  Following this easy tutorial from splitcoastampers, I quickly completed this black & white bow.

As some of you may know, I am a designer paper hoarder.  These bows are a great project to help me actually USE my paper.  Perfect timing with my son's birthday and Christmas just around the corner.

Click to enlarge the top or bottom photo - do you see the little row of clear rhinestones on the top box?  I love that detail, I simply poked holes using my paper piercing tool and inserted a small clear rhinestone.

I'm very happy with the way this "Anything But a Card" project turned out.

Hope you like it too!

Thinking of You

My focus has been on my Mom's health recently ...

I haven't taken much time to create, haven't been "up to" creating.  Here is my Mom modeling one of her new wigs two weeks ago in preparation for her pending chemotherapy.

This is my Step-Dad, Ed (Mom calls him Eddie) and my Mom showing off her new Vikings jersey (her oncology nurse gave it to her as a gift).  Ed is a long time Minnesota fan, my Mom on the other hand ... simply a Brett Favre fan. 

Finally, Ed and my Mom can root on the same team!  :)

My Mom was admitted to the hospital last Wednesday and was diagnosed with neutropenia.  We think it was a side effect from chemotherapy.  She's been through chemo before, but this was a new "chemo cocktail" as she calls it, since the cancer spread further in her body.

She is still in the hospital, with hopes of release by the weekend.  So much has happened since these photos were taken - only a few weeks ago.  It's amazing how much can change before your very eyes.

We love you, Mom and can't wait to get you home!

Thanks for being patient with me as my family spends much needed time with her. 

On a stamping related note, I will be back Thursday with my Pals Paper Arts challenge creation to share.  It's a fun one, so stay tuned!
