Wow Wednesday: Humming Along

I made this card using the Humming Along Stamp Set and Blends Markers for one of the most important people in my life.  I can’t tell you who it is, because I’ve yet to give it to her.  But, it was a true labor of love since every square inch of the card has been colored by hand.  It’s true!  The flowers and leaves were stamped on a Whisper White Notecard in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and then painstakingly  colored by hand – even the background!  There’s a  saying you know when a paper crafter loves you because they use their best paper.  Well, sometimes you know they love you because of the time and effort it took to craft something beautiful.

Did you hear the news?  The Sale-a-Bration Organza Ribbon Combo Pack is back in stock!  The only thing is, I don’t know for how long.  It’s still free with a $50 purchase, but  I’d grab a pack now, before it’s gone for good!
