Rubbadultery - aaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!!

I have been movin' fast all morning hoping lightning doesn't strike me - LOL! This is the first time I have used an image NOT made by SU! but I could not help myself - I actually don't own this stamp, the image was sent to me and I will get to that in a minute. But, the card! Aaaahhhh, I saw that little boy and it reminded me so much of mine (who is going to be 19 on Sunday) that I HAD to use it for his birthday card. However, everything BUT the image IS SU! The base of the card is Brilliant Blue card stock, then layered with Pumpkin Pie card stock. I faux stitched all around the two layers, using my mat stack and paper piercer. Then, I used some of that yummy Jersey Shore DP - totally love this paper! I also cut a strip of brilliant blue and layered it with another piece of the Jersey Shore then added a Jumbo Pewter Eyelet. I used my Ticket Corner Punch on all the paper to include the paper strip. The image is backed in Brilliant Blue card stock and if I had to guess, I would say the image is stamped in black stazon on Whisper White but I can't swear to that. I added some Brilliant Blue brads around the image which I colored in using my Stampin' Write Markers. Last, I added some Photo Corners using my punch and added some more of the yummy DP. This card came together pretty quickly and I really like how it came out. And, it is all thanks to Diane aka ddnjoys2stamp who sent me this beautiful card and these wonderful images from High Hopes stamps. Aren't they the cutest??!! I totally love them - thanks soooooo much Diane!!! She is a sweetie and if you have not seen her blog, get on over there because she does fabulous stuff! And, now that I have done it once, I am itchin' to make some more cards with all the fabulous images I have received from bloggin' friends all over! WhooHoo!

FACT#33
I am loyal to a fault. I will always stand behind my friends, in both good and bad times - especially bad, because that is when people need you the most. I am fiercely protective of the ones that I love - I believe this how God wanted us to be. I have a strong faith and talk to God often, in both good and bad times. Since moving to CA, I have had need of Him even more to get through the transition of leaving the Navy, having my son go to college, and leaving all my friends in Florida. I am extremely lonely here, but I have faith that He has a plan for me and so I am closely listening to what He is telling me and trying my hardest to do the things He expects me to do. His love it what gets me through.

I hope all of you have a totally fabulous day!!
