Celebrate Today

I love this sentiment.  We should all celebrate today.  You never know what tomorrow will bring.  Through all of the things I have been going through with my mom I am learning that you should appreciate each and every day you have on this earth with your family and friends.  I made this card today for the adorable sketch at Card Patterns using my new PTI set Friendship Jar.  I loved this set the moment I saw Michelle post about it on her blog.


I saw that Lisa had made this cute card using the Friendship Jar set and the Flutterby Friend set.  It was adorable!  So I had to use some butterflies in my jar.  Had to!  Something happened when I checked out.  I had ordered the Flutterby Friend set and when I got my confirmation email of my order it wasn't there.  I was not happy.  BUT, I did get a free T- Shirt.  I will just order it next month.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/Kraft, Cream
DP: October Afternoon/ Fly a Kite
Stamps: PTI/ Friendship Jars, Butterfly Dreams
Ink: Memento/Tuxedo Black
Copics: YR07,Y06,Y17
Dies: Friendship Jar, Butterfly Dream from PTI
Buttons: from my stash
Lace: Wrights
Twine: PTI

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I am so happy that I had time to create.

Heather
