Okay, I have to confess...I like this card and I like this image (actually, I LOVE this image) but I'm not so sure they work together. Let me take you on the journey that is was the making of this card.
I started out by colouring my image to match the pinks in the paper. That was on Tuesday. Then on Friday I decided to get to work and use the Friday Sketchers sketch. The card was originally for a Paper Sundaes Challenge which was to use more than one stamp...so we're on Friday and the image is due on my blog on Sunday. Life happens and I come back to it on Monday and just cannot pull my mojo out of the gutter to figure out a second image. Sigh. I spot the black dots and decide that black is what is missing (although looking at it now red or dark pink would have worked so much better) and so I laid it all out. Life happens and on Friday I finally get into the craft room to glue it all together (it's been laying there nicely since Monday). Sunday rolls around and I finally take pictures. Oh my, that's a two week card. On the bright side, it's one more card to add to my stash. And, I realized how much I love this image.
On the home front, things are ok. As much as I love my papercrafting, knitting has become something that is just easier to do right now. Hubby has been having seizures most days despite being on high doses of 3 different anti-seizure medications. We're waiting on an MRI now to see what the heck is going on. I'm exhausted and so hanging out with hubby watching a little TV and knitting is much easier at this point. So, if you don't see a lot of posts from me, that is why...life has just taken over for a bit. Regardless, I am thankful for everyone who pops in and comments on my blog. :)

Daily seizures are horrible...not just for him, but for you.STRESS!!!
I think the card is cute. Your problem is the fact that all that stress is messing with the mojo.
take care, thinking of you guys!! Lee-Ann Kubinec xo
