I'm a hippie at heart

I had to make a card for a swap I'm in with a new group I joined. I really like "hippie bella". In the 60's I was a bit of a hippie.

Wedding card

July 12 is my youngest daughter's wedding. It's her second and the wedding is in the backyard of their home with a reception at a restaurant. Originally the whole thing was supposed to be in the backyard but she's worried about rain now so the reception was moved.

I made a wedding card. I used Bazzil Bling paper, some pretty pearlescent stripe paper and then stamped on the back of that paper, which was also pearlescent, with a Bella wedding gown stamp. Plus *lots* of itty bitty pearls.

Since I can't walk and access the scanner hubby scanned it for me therefore the top of the card is cut off.

Haven't posted in a while

I was working on a new creation... me! I had gastric bypass surgery on March 18, 2008. So far I've lost 38 pounds and have been riding my bicycle or walking, or both every day. Twice a week I go to Healthbridge to work out. My bariatric program included a free two month membership plus eight sessions with a personal trainer and I've been taking advantage of it.

I've also been doing a lot of gardening. I have four flower beds plus a vegetable garden.

All is not lost however. I've been working on some swaps and a challenge.

The challenge to was to take a Starbucks Frappachino carton and bottles and alter them. All the paper and cardstock is from Close to My Heart. The stamps are my new obsession... Bella stamps. This one is BikerBella.
