And The Day Came
Posted by Becca Feeken on Friday, July 10th, 2009
I received this sweet rose in the mail yesterday and immediately knew what stamp sentiment it would match perfectly. Suzanne with Quietfire Design sent me this awesome sentiment - And the Day Came. You may have seen it before as it is in my personal favorites quotes database that rotate on my blog. So before I crashed and burned with a migraine yesterday, I pulled this little card together fairly quickly.
I normally use design paper for my backgrounds and I swear it takes me longer to pick the paper than it does to produce the entire card!! No so this time - I used a Hero Arts Background stamp just so that I could get ‘er done. So I set up my background and stamped the flourish. Then I cut the Spellbinders Curved Rectangle. I cut and embossed Spellbinders Rose, stenciling it carefully with my SU dye based inks. Lastly I cut and embossed a Spellbinders Petite Scalloped Oval Large and a Spellbinders Petite Oval Large. Using Chalk Inks, I stamped the sentiment and colored the word "open" with one of the smaller Cat Eye shaped Chalk Ink Pads. Everything is smudged with Antique Linen Distress Ink.

Good evening, Becca - I do hope you are better today. I take migraine headaches too so I can empathise with you. Your card is so pretty, soft colours
Just gorgeous Becca -
Another beautiful card Becca. So pretty in pink. I hope you are better today.
pretty stamping, so like the soft suttle color!
Becca,
Beautiful card as always. I love that background, all of the elements just look like they were meant to be together on a card. You are like a gymnast that is so good, that she makes her routine on the balance beam look like she’s doing it on the floor instead of a 4 inch wide beam 4 feet above the ground.
Hugs,

Beautiful, beautiful card.
Such a beautiful sentiment and gorgeous card. Hope those migraines go away!!
This is as always a beautiful piece of work. You are so inspiring and your use of Spellbinders dies keeps me spellbound!
You have encouraged me to be a lot more adventurous with my dies and I have found the results to be very worthwhile.
I pop in every day and I am never disappointed. You are using your gifts to their fullest extent and freely sharing them with us.
Thank you and God bless Becca.
