I recently placed an order (for myself) which qualified for a Level 2 Hostess gift. While there are such cute Level 2 stamp sets – I was drawn to the large chocolate “Home Is Built of Love and Dreams” Decor Element. I have a vaulted ceiling in my great room and thought it would be perfect. Finally, this weekend, I put it up. Even for this “can’t-put-anything-in-a-straight-line-to-save-my-life” girl, it was easy, peasy! I purchased the Decor Elements applicator tool and within about 15 minutes I was DONE!
Here are the results:
I’m thrilled with the results! My walls are a little more green than they show up in these pics..the chocolate really compliments the colors nicely.
Enjoy!
I felt like doing a simple, somewhat masculine card…
I apologize for the pic…not the best lighting. This one will be sent to my brother in law (Karen’s husband), as he is still (understandably a mess) since her death. I want to let him know we are still praying for him and the boys. (For those that are new to my blog – Karen was my beloved sister-in-law/fellow breast cancer butt-kicker who lost her fight in August.)
I have some good news on the Relay for Life front. The “Fight Like a Girl” shirts have been selling like crazy. The local media have picked up the story as a result. To date, there has been approximately $35,000 raised in Karen’s name for the American Cancer Society! The image and slogan have been copyrighted, and the brown shirt/pink logo are being seen everywhere! We were at a bonfire in our little country town this weekend and there was a woman wearing one of “Karen’s shirts”! I flipped out – what an impact she’s had!!
Sorry – detour….
