Hi friends! My blog is acting st-ra-nge today! But here goes! These two cards are from my wonderful friend Paola's swap over at the SCS called "What music are you?" I knew instantly that I wanted to incorporate my love of music and my faith and then thought of Josh Groban (I <3 Josh!!) and then it all sort of made sense - The Prayer by Josh Groban and Celine Dion! I had quite a time with this card, and this is actually attempt #5- I changed colors, dsp, cardstock, even the image several times and it just wasnt' quite right. Even now, in hindsight, I realize there are things I still need on this one - like sponge daubing around Hanna ;) We learn along the way, right? Prayer is a wonderful tool - I use it daily!
For my 2nd spot, I wanted something fun and upbeat and this song has always been a favorite - you hear it and hum it for the rest of the day! Find it on Youtube and give it a try - "Mama Said" is very catchy! Of course, The Shirelles are singing more about a boy, but I *borrowed* the line for this card - showing a tired, busy mom of 3 .... from Stampin'Bella. This is so me - I guess the 4th is still at home, or in the minivan - lol! I showed it to my dh and he didn't get it ...... he said "hmmm, I like it" and when I asked if he got it, he said no, not really, ROFL! Maybe another tired, busy, overwhelmed mom will? ;) TFL!!! This was such fun, once I got rolling! :)
These are so awesome, Kelly, I can hardly stand it!!!! Oh I do hope I get one of yours back in the swap! I love, love, love the DP you used for The Prayer, and the Mama Said card is tooooo fun! (And ain't that the truth! She warned us! LOL!) Your coloring is so great on both! You should be very proud of yourself on these beauties! Hugs, Catherine
Oh Kelly, these cards are FABULOUS! I love the DP on the Josh Groban card, and what a fun take on Mama Said!! Your coloring is fantastic! Great job!! {HUGS}
