My card was inspired by this card by Julie Overby.
Hers is beautiful, and mine turned out pretty okay.
I liked the one I envisioned in my head a little more than this one.
But that's just how it goes sometimes. ;)
I will be away from my laptop for a little over a week on vacay in Yuma, AZ, so I won't be posting anything to my blog until after I get back home.
And the house-sitter doesn't papercraft, being that he is a oilfield mechanic, and wouldn't have a clue how to blog... haha
I am looking forward to some hot temps of around 36C (96.8F), especially since it has gotten cold and snowy again here in Northeast BC, Canada, with temps around -18C (-0.4F) with a wind chill of -30C (-22F).
It's been a long winter, like they always seem to be.
Happy creating! :)

You make me wish that I had bought A Tweet. You always create something amazing with it. :)
Love the colors and the little tag accents.
I think your version is very pretty - and I can't believe you got that flower at the dollar store. I need to come shop in Canada!
Vicki, your card is beautiful. love that flower. Enjoy your vacay!
I like your better Vicky! Beautiful! Enjoy the hot weather!
Love the inspiration piece and LOVE your rendition...and YES, often times the images in my head are FAR BETTER than the ones that actually get made...lol. Glad I'm not the only one! Have fun on vacation!
I know some great Mexican joints in Yuma. My daughter was born there. Make sure you check out the Territorial Prison Musuem. Pretty cool to goto. Have fun!
