My mom also started back her chemo and radiation on Monday which I take her to. So that was my week. How did yours go?
This week the Design Team got to work with digital images from Black Leaf Studios. Wonderful images. You should go check them out. The one I used here is Vintage Chic Elements. You know me and my vintage.
I did not put a sentiment on this one. I liked it so much I decided to leave it blank. That way I can put whatever I want on it as needed.
Notice that I used my wood grain stamp from PTI for the chair to give it a little more pop. Wondering if I should have done a darker color.
Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/Rustic Cream
DP: My Minds eye/Home,K and Company, October Afternoon
Stamps: PTI/Wood Grain
Other: Doily(sprayed with Glimmer Mist), Ribbon, heart charm, twine
Thanks so much for stopping by
Have a great weekend!

Your card is just perfect Heather ... soft, pretty and the right chair colour ... So sorry your little one is ill (bless him) and I hope your Mom is doing ok ... I fee for you both xxx
Your card is so soft and inviting, Heather! I hope you get a chance to relax in one like it very soon. Sorry to hear about your son getting sick (bummer at the beginning of the school year) and continued prayers for your mom.. sending big HUGS!
Sorry to hear about your son, hope he gets better soon! Love this card, just so much of your shabby style!
Not too bad at the state fair, it was sunny and dry when we got there, we heard about the rain and the flood, guess we are lucky!
This is really pretty Heather! Love the colors and the little doily peeking out. Hope your son's doing better and that the chemo hasn't been too rough on your mom. Blessings!
I just love the softness to this card; so pretty! Sorry to hear about your week. Sounds like it was a bit of a tough one. Here's hoping things look brighter this weekend. Hugs, Carly
ugh Heather! Sending well wishes for your Mom and son to feel better soon. That's not a good start any one's week. Hopefully the weekend will be better! I love your vintage take on this week's sketch. Always like to see what you are creating and this card is lovely! I noticed the wood grain. It's subtle but enough to stand out. Hugs! ♥ Amy
I am sorry for that your son had such a bad start to school.
I hope you mom is doing ok.
Your card is very beautiful.
Great papers in lovely colors.
Hugs, Irena
I'm sorry to hear about your Mom, hopefully that treatment will help! And I wish your son feels better soon so he won't miss anything else! Your card is beautiful and so soft! Love the woodgrain on the chair, it's perfect! And that charm, just yummy!
So sorry to hear about your week.. I hope next week is a little better. I hope your Mom is doing OK..
Your card looks great. I love that image, right up your alley.. Hugs, Linda
Quite a week! Hang in there!
Your card is adorable. Love the vintage feeling and soft colours!
Your card could not be more gorgeous! I'm so sorry it was a rough week. I hope your son is feeling better. Your mom is continually in my prayers.
Sorry about your son missing school - I think that sort of thing probably stresses out us moms more than the kids or the teachers. He will be fine, I'm sure - kids are so resilient. You and your mom are in my thoughts.
Your card is so very pretty - I love the soft colors (the wood grain is just right), the romantic little doily and ribbon. And I'm with you - I often leave off the sentiment, so that I can decide at the last minute whom it will go to and what it will say. :) Hope you get a little relaxation this weekend!
What a beautiful card! Love how soft and pretty it is!
Heather....this is soooooo amazingly CUTE!
I have a Digital Doodles design call that I would love for you to apply????? Your work is the most awesome! :)

Anthea xo.
Hi Heather....

Thank you SO much for the camera tip!! It's darling Heather!!
Gorgeous card Heather! The chair & paper doily make a wonderful combo :) I still have yet to use mine! thanks for the inspiration!
Awww, poor kiddo. Hopefully he'll be back to 100% on Monday! Gorgeous card Heather! I LOVE the subtle woodgrain pattern on the chair...bravo!
Stopping by to say hi and compliment you on your pretty card! Have a great week!
GORGEOUS!!!!!! That's all I can say about this card! I hope your mom is getting better!
How clever to use the woodgrain stamp on the chair. The chair is so realistic is jumps right out at you. So pretty. I will put it on my "to do" list to check out the digi images.
I hope your mom is tolerating the chemo OK. I have no experience on chemo but I'm guessing the more treatments, the more symptoms.
Take care,
Shelley
So pretty Heather, love it. Great colors. Love the softness. Sorry about your mom having to go through that, big hugs for her. How is she doing otherwise? Handling everything? I would love to send her a card. :) :)
Heather this card is so pretty.
Your chair is awesome! Love the card. Here's wishing for a better week for you.
All time I admire your sense of style, probably at you very much a rich inner world, time turns out such masterpieces! It is glad that it is familiar with you :) Come - take away - http://elena-ss.blogspot.com/2010/08/blog-post_18.html
I often think about you and your mom and praying that she finds comfort. I can tell that you are an awesome daughter to her and your love for her is so evident. I'm also hoping that your son is better soon.
I don't know how you come up with so many gorgeous cards with all that you have to deal with! This particular card is GORGEOUS! Love the colors, image and that charm is "charming." If you feel comfortable about giving out your addy, I'd love to send a card to your mom. Take care and wishing the best for you and your family. Lots of hugs. Adela
HI HEATHER, A VERY LOVELY CARD, I LOVE THE PASTEL COLORS. "JUST BEAUTIFUL!"
