Die: MFT Christmas Greetings (happy)
Hi there. I've been absent for a while, but now that my grandson goes to preschool twice a week, I have some play time to craft again--to "Do More of What Makes Me Happy".
As I did in the past, I looked to card challenges for inspiration, color ideas and/or sketches to get me started and when I saw the inspiration photo from the Fusion Card Challenge, the creative colours from Colour Me...! , and Simon Says Die Crazy - use at least one die, I was totally inspired to create and play along.

Thanks for the inspiration challenges! And thank YOU for stopping by!

Welcome back Shirley!!!! So nice to see you've got some craft time again. How time flies. Seems like your grandson was just born yesterday. Your card is so pretty and I so love the blue flowers.
Well hello Shirley~
It sure has been a while since you were in blogland..... Welcome back and of course with a stunning card as always.... Those grand babies must be keeping you busy, and I'm sure they have grown a lot too! Love the simplicity of your card.....
Hi Shirley, what a wonderful combination of different challenges! I love how you brought out the lovely color palette. Thank you for joining us at Colour Me! :)
What a great sentiment! And I love that you've used it on one of your first projects back after an absence. Those floral images are perfectly scrumptious and look priceless in this palette. Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at Colour Me...!
Shirley!!!!!!!!!!!! omgosh .. what a most LOVELY surprise! I have to tell you that I rarely stop by my own blog .. and it was such a surprise to see your link at the top of my blog list!
OOoH you've not lost your touch .. this is simply BEAUTIFUL my dear! I love how you've laid this all out, and the colors are such a lovely combination! Love the sentiment on here as well! :)
Gosh .. time sure does fly doesn't it?! Can't believe your grandbaby is going to preschool already?! Whaaaaat?! *sniff sniff* that makes me sad because it seems like just yesterday Bodhi was going to preschool .. and now he's in 4th grade! :( Booooooo! hehehe!
Anyway .. you've made my night and I'm soooo happy to see you on here!
Sending you lots of BIG hugs,
Elise
I was so surprised and happy to see you posting again. Your card is lovely and made me wonder how you stamped the two colored flowers...were they in two parts or did you ink in the colors before stamping. Anyway, your artistic skills have not dimmed despite your long absence from blogland. Welcome back!
Hi Shirley, what a wonderful surprise to see you creating beautiful cards again. This is just so pretty with the gorgeous color scheme & love the catchy sentiment. How fitting is that. Can't believe the years have flown by like they have. Seems like just yesterday that little guy was born. Hope this will be the 1st of many new cards. You've been missed !!!
hugs, Janie
