Today's card is a quick and easy one, mostly because Monday was a very stressful day. Besides waking up with a bit of a fever and feeling yucky, we also have an old dog who hurt his knee pretty badly on Friday night. He has a torn cruciate ligament, which is going to require surgery. So off to the vet we went for a 2nd appointment (he went first thing Saturday morning also) and to see what our options are. The vet feels like he still has some good years ahead, so we've decided to go ahead with the surgery. Thankfully we've been going to this vet for 22 years and she's willing to work with us on payments. Thank God for good people that will do this, otherwise, there would be no way to manage it.
On to the card! Like I said, quick and easy and CUTE!
Recipe:
Real Red - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White - 4" x 5 1/4" (inside and out)
Real Red - scrap for sentiment
Stamps - Hey Love
Ink - Memento Black, VersaMark
Stampin' Blends - Soft Suede Combo, Crumb Cake Combo, Pool Party Combo, Cherry Cobbler Combo and Ivory
Even though you don't need the Combo for the Cherry Cobbler, I always suggest purchasing as a combo, because you may want both of them for other projects.
I used the Light Pool Party to lightly outline the Otters and to make the "ripples" in the water stand out a bit. I colored in the "heart bubble (around the heart)" with the Dark Pool Party.
The sentiment is stamped with VersaMark and then used White Embossing Powder and my heat gun to set the powder.
Thank you for looking in today. Please say a prayer for our little Nike dog. He's in a lot of pain from the doctor exam today, since she x-rayed and manipulated his knee to feel what was going on inside. Right now we're scheduled for surgery on the 21st, but would like to get him in sooner if possible.
Nike - look at that face! :)
Hugs,
Donna
