Happy Sunday...it seems like it has been forever since I have made a card to post that was just for fun. I feel like I have lost some of my mojo or just not feeling crafty. I fell at work on last Monday, lost my balance and landed on my back so I am sure that is part of it, sitting at my desk it just not that comfortable. I am doing fine now...just feeling a bit off this past week.
I have one card to share for 2 challenges, Colour Me #67 and showCASe your style #13. I was inspired by Tracey's card here. Joyce was sweet enough to send me a bunch of die cuts from her incredible collection and I love this one...so pretty.
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...enjoy your week!
Wanted to add a few photos from our day in San Francisco for Record Store Day...so much and looking forward to next year! Record Store Day at Amoeba is amazing, so much fun chatting with all the other crazy people in line collecting special edition vinyl. Happy there is a Whole Foods market across the street, yummy food and coffee and even more important....a clean bathroom!
The line went all the way around the block! The first people in line camped out! Way too cold for us to do that but next year we need to leave at least an hour earlier! We were about 15 people back from the front of the line.
It gets crazy inside...and it takes almost an hour to get through the line...but Ashleigh was quick!
All of the purchases from the day!
This is so pretty Kim!! Don't you just love those PTI butterflies! Sorry to hear about your fall, hope you're feeling back to yourself soon.
ReplyDeleteA stunning card, Kim--one of my favorites! Glad you 2 had a fun day & got your vinyl!
ReplyDeleteLove your cards, awesome amounts of diecutting!
ReplyDeleteHope that you're feeling better!
Vinyl...how fun!
Your card is so very stunning. I had already pinned Tracey's to CASE and now I am adding yours too. Beautiful design, and I just love your layered butterflies.
ReplyDeleteKim, your card is stunning!! I love that intricate background die. The tone-on-tone white makes it subtle, but all the intricate details add so much to your design. Thanks so much for sharing with us at the Colour Me challenge this week! :)
ReplyDeleteThis card is beautiful, Kim, at least the card shows no lack of mojo. What a lovely background and butterflies!
ReplyDeleteLove this card, Kim. It is absolutely gorgeous. Hope you're feeling better.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all...ouch! A back injury is not fun! And yes, it's a real bugger trying to sit when you're in pain. Nice to hear that you are on the mend pal! Sending tons and tons of healing power your way!
ReplyDeleteSpecial edition vinyl...you rocker you! Thing is, I'd likely do the same thing...for Bingo that is! DH has a box full of 'old records' that he refuses to toss. Likely some valuable stuff there. Should maybe check it out!
Ooops....got sidetracked...your card - GOR-GEE-OUS! The butterfly die is so dainty and so pretty! Love the velum overlays and the stunning background die!
lovely card Kim - a friend sent me some of those PTI die cuts - think i'll CASE your idea as i've been "blank" on how to use them - thanks for inspiring me!!
ReplyDeleteYour day sounds wonderful, Kim! I'm terribly sorry to hear of your nasty fall, but I'm glad your back was better by the weekend. It wouldn't have been fun standing for that long otherwise. It's so neat that you have this tradition with Ashleigh!! In the meantime, you managed to create a gorgeous and very feminine pink card!! I love it! The butterflies with their pearl necklaces look like they are going out for tea at the Biltmore!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteso sorry to hear about your fall but pleased you are feeling better now. I love you collect vinyl!
ReplyDeleteThis card is a stunner-love the pinks and the sentiment in black is the perfect choice, it seems to compliment the pretty pinks x
I love your partially embossed background. The butterflies are perfect with it! Thanks for playing along at Colour Me this week!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous! Love the layered die cut background with the layered butterflies! Beautiful, Kim!
ReplyDeleteyour cards make me happy, they are always gorgeous! Newest follower and thanks for always playing at Colour Me!!!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Kim, I enjoyed the photos of Amoeba, So glad you had a great time!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like so much fun!! Did you find anything new or did you get the artists you were after? Fifteen from the front of the line is pretty good, imagine being around the block...eeek! Can't say I've ever camped out for anything before but nothing that exciting happens in little old Blenheim. Love the way you used the colours on your card and those butterflies always look perfect. Really hope your looking after yourself too. My Mum has had a really bad knee for the past few weeks and finally talked her into going back to the doctor. Taking her for x-rays and blood tests tomorrow (she might have an infection) and will go and stay with her this weekend as she can hardly walk at all. We can chat while I do all her housework etc and she loves watching me make cards, so all will be good. Enjoy the rest of your week!
ReplyDeleteYou always make such amazing cards with these butterflies Kim! Simply gorgeous. Hope you are feeling better!
ReplyDeleteYou already know I'm completely swooning over your butterflies...smitten by, crushing over and in LOVE! Stunning! So sorry to hear about your fall: OUCH! Glad you're feeling better but please: take it easy! Your shopping trip...oh my! Such fun! Some day I'm coming to San Francisco - to see you and Darnell - and that's that!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
That sounds like such a fun day. We don't have any record stores around her anymore. It is so sad. LOVE your card. Love the white on white with the pink!!
ReplyDeleteOuch, Kim ... I'm so sorry to hear about your fall ... do take it easy and make sure you're properly healed before getting 'energetic' ... crafting sounds like a good solution in the meantime (tee hee!). Sending healing thoughts and prayers your way, sweet friend! Great photo's ... looks as though it was an amazing day ... lots of lovely goodies in those bags! Gorgeous card ... delicate, soft and beautifully feminine! Hugs & Bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteKim - so sorry to hear that you fell!!! I would have brought you a treat if I lived close enough!! Hope you are healing and what an incredible shopping trip you had - so excited for you!! AS for this card that is just full of an ethereal beauty and softness - LOVE IT!!! The touches on it are just perfect and you rock with using pearls!!! Super beautiful!!! Have a way good day and hope you are well!!!
ReplyDeleteLove how the vellum die cuts both soften and add dimension. so pretty!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous those two tone butterflies! And what a fun day you had in San Fran! Hopefully you recovered form you fall by now!!!
