Upsy Daisy & Love Bandit by Stampin Up and me

Hi everyone.

So glad you took the time to come and visit me for a bit on my blog.

Today I needed a quick card to send to Holland. That part worked out just fine :) The only problem now is getting this card to the Post Office.. Our car is having some kind of light show on it's dash board...

When I start the car, 3 different bright signs are starting to 'look' me right in the eye. I think they are trying to send me a message.. I tried to tell the car, that that's not my thing... and that I am not the one who can translate this message in to a safe and good action for it..

So I guess I need to bring it to the Toyota dealership sooner than later... Sigh..

We really need this car this weekend though.. 2 birthday parties and one New Years party are waiting for our sweet visit.. & I really do not want to end up in the ditch with -25 Celsius (in the wind this means -30 something :( + 3 cold precious frozen kids .. Yip...what to do... Even getting to the dealership.. I find pretty tricky.. what if half way this car had it and just quits on us? That's why we have cell phones I guess..

Anyhoo.... Don't you love the colors I picked today? I am not sure if I ever used this trio!

• As a base for this card I used the Taken with Teal.. It is so retired.. and it is such a shame..
• The second layer I picked is the retired Kiwi Kiss.
• On top of that is a layer of Tempting Turquoise by Stampin Up.
• Again I used that tiny little owl from 'Love Bandit' to create a bit of a retro look.
• the flowers you see are from the retired stamp set 'Upsy Daisy' by Stampin Up. That set is not leaving this house.. I so love it.
• I inked up the Daises with Stampin Up's Whisper white craft ink..
• + as an added fun detail I glued on 3 Designer buttons created by Stampin Up.

Sweet, sweet.. and sweet.

I hope your weekend is going to be great..

Inky hugs, Pauline
