Let's see....what other news do I have...oh yeah! After some soul searching I decided to leave my part time job at Archivers after 5 years.....I know....5 years is a LONG time for a part time job. But since my Mother came to live with me 14 months ago, working full time, part time and taking care of her has just gotten overwhelming. Megan, the manager at Archivers, was wonderful in only scheduling me to work one day a week, but even with that I felt it was just time to take a break. And because I will really miss all the girls at the store, I decided to make them all cards to say goodbye and thank them for being my friend.
I took a background stamp and then stamped a butterfly over that and colored it in with COPIC markers. I made 12 cards and was able to come up with 12 different color combinations so everyone got a different colored butterfly.
Then I was at Michaels and found a container of flowers and all the colors of flowers matched the butterflies so of course, I had to buy them.
I decided to put the stamped image on a black card. I then took a white Signo pen and drew a dotted line all aournd the edge of the card to personalize it with their name.
I didn't take a picture of the inside of the card but the stamped sentiment from Stampendous says:
"Thank you for walking beside me and being my friend"
I follow the blog DarleneDesign.com and this is a link to the video she posted with this technique.
