Always Maintain

I love this quote, it is so perfect with the winter we are having.

This is yet another trial card back from my drawer. I love the warm color and flowers.

I wanted to add some more warmness by adding this ray stencil. 

It makes it look so much like sunbeams.

 

Just a bit more color to blend it all together.

I recently got this die and have been really wanting to use it. Tiger lilies are my favorite flower. I cut them out of this great copper colored paper.

The centers needed to pop, so I reached for metallic rub-ons. I used gold for the flower centers. Then I put green on the leaves.

I picked this gem of a stamp up at Stamp-N-Toys annual garage sale last October. I do collect bee stamps!

Here is a close-up of the bee. I stamped him again, then cut him out and popped him up.

This really cheered me up. I have been so excited to see the actual sun the last few days. I hope it continues for awhile. Tomorrow is another make & take at Stamp-N-Toys. I am sure Jan has a great card for us. Stop by if you are in the area between 10:30 a.m.-7:00 p.m.
