A Bittersweet Day

Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing well on this lovely Wednesday! Today's post is a little bittersweet for me because it is my last official post as a member of the Getting Cricky Design Team. As much as I have LOVED these last 5 months, I have decided to withdraw my name from consideration for the next DT term. This was my first design team experience & I have learned so much! I truly cherish the relationships I have developed with my DT sisters & I appreciate & admire each of them so very much. What a talented & special group of ladies!

Okay, before I get too emotional, let's move on to today's projects, lol. I am a featured DT member again today at Getting Cricky, along with the awesomely talented Lisa from A Mermaid's Crafts. If you haven't already, give yourself a real treat & check out her blog. She is truly one of the most brilliant crafters I've ever seen.

I have 2 projects to share with you - this card is new & the second card is a "flashback" from an earlier post....



SIZE:  5.25" square
PAPER:  from my scraps (mostly Core'dinations)
PUNCHMartha Stewart
INKTim Holtz Distress Ink "Black Soot", VersaMagic Chalk Ink "Pixie Dust"
OTHERCTMH chipboard, purple Smooch, Fiskars paper edgers "Victorian", Stickles "Star Dust"

For the sentiment, I used this K Andrew Designs stamp set (my favorite!)....
