Little Silhouette

Good morning, Friends! Well, it's now official. I am sick. Ugh! I thought I could make myself keep doing what I always do, then I wouldn't come down with what everyone else had. I don't believe it's the flu but it is definitely a head and chest cold. Yuck! Right now I have a huge headache so I am trying hard to not cough. Looks like I will be spending most of the day in bed. Meanwhile, my husband took my son skiing. All by myself - :)

Since I haven't been feeling well it has been kind of hard to be creative. So I went to my Pinterest board and found some cards that I could use for inspiration. This is one of them. Love the simplicity! I took three pieces of different shades of blue - Island Indigo, Baja Breeze and Pool Party - and ran them through the Big Shot using the Honeycomb embossing folder. These are then adhered to a piece of Whisper White and then popped up onto a card base of Whisper White. Then I ran a piece of Basic Black through the Big Shot using the Little Leaves sizzlet. This is adhered to the card. The greeting from Sweet Essentials is stamped in black StazOn onto a strip of Whisper White and flagged at one end. I put an Island Indigo brad through the other end. This is then popped up onto the card. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
