Still absolutely freezing here and the wind down by the Store is unreal! It feels more like Winter now that it has all Winter! I keep telling myself that Spring is just around the corner, I guess we are still a few blocks from that corner! Other than the wind by the Store it was a nice day inside. I got more accomplished than I thought I would, that’s always a nice surprise! On my way home I spoke to Sue and then Heather. When I got to my Parent’s Daniel and my Brother were there so we all had dinner together. After dinner I spoke to Andrew and Jim, it was a busy phone night! Later on I took a ride over to Sue’s and spent a little time with her and her Husband Joe. We had a nice evening. I got a text from a friend that was so sweet, you know of those ones that just makes your heart feel full, what a wonderful way to end the day! Today is day one of this month’s Lawn Fawn Card Class, can’t wait to see all of my peeps!
While I was at the store I made a quick card for this week’s Paper Players challenge…
I used some more of the Add-Ons to the March My Monthly Hero Kit! My card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I used the Hero Arts Wood Floor Bold Prints Background to stamp a piece of Solar White 80lb in Soft Brown and adhered it to the card front. My images and greeting are from the Hero Arts Produce and Seeds Photopolymer Stamp Set and are heat embossed in Hero Arts White Embossing Powder onto a piece of Lemon Lime. I backed it with a piece of Crisp Green and adhered it to the card with E-Z Runner and Fun Foam at a slight angle. Just a few Pretty Pink Posh Holiday Shimmer Mix Sequins and the card is done! I absolutely love that Wood Floor Background, it’s soon to be a favorite for sure! I hope that you like my card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge! Thanks for visiting! Have an awesome Thursday! 🙂

I know what you mean about how windy and cold it has been. I had to laugh when you said your thought the corner was a few blocks away!! I think you’re right. I love the floor design for the background. I have not seen anything like that, but it is clean and subtle. The faux seed pack is totally cute!! Love the card and the colors. Have a great day with your peeps.
Oh, I’m so over the cold and wind HJ! I’m hoping that we are a bit closer now! That Wood Floor Stamp is great! But then I love anything woodgrain! LOL! I had fun, hope you had a good week! 🙂
So adorable, Justin! I just love that fun sentiment and the simple wood background. Thank you for joining us at The Paper Players this week! Happy to see you there too! Crystal, DT
Thanks Crystal! I thought the sentiment was really cool! Hope that you you had a lovely week! 🙂
Oh Justin – You’re cracking me up this morning with your “I have bean thinking of you”! I love starting my day with a smile to Thank You! Great card to send as just a little surprise to a friend or relative you have been missing. It’s always such fun to get something other then a bill in the mail. The crisp green and lemon lime are just fabulous together with the white embossing powder. I love it.
Well maybe since it’s Thirsty Thursday you will be able to warm yourself up tonight with a hot toddy and gathering with your friends. We here in the North Country are living in a winter wonderland once again. It’s bright, it’s beautiful and it’s cold……………..just the way I like it. LOL Don’t worry, you’ll have your chance to listen to me complain about the hot weather soon enough. Love and hugs and wishes for a Terrific Thursday to you my friend. XXOO 🙂
