Inspire & The Little Mermaid

I was up early Sunday moring....like 4am to be exact...

sometimes I can't sleep and need something to keep me busy....

so I created cards for 4 different challenges.....

 

this card I made for the challenge at Joan's Gardens...

to use a framed lattice....

a bird.....

flowers.....

and a vertical sentiment.....

well, normally challenges don't throw me, but this one did....

in all the dies I have, not one is a lattice....

so I went thru my Cricut cartridges

 and found a lattice in the MS Elegant cake cartridge...

saved by Martha Stewart!!

but then there  was the problem of the vertical sentiment....

I had this great Asian vertical thank you sentiment....

but it was just too big for the card....

so I had to use some letter rub ons....

my tiny roses were sprayed with 2 different Tattered Angel sprays....

the birds are a MS punch and the "vine" is a Cheery Lynn die....
 

and last but not least I want to share a picture of my darling little

"great" granddaughter that is 11 months old

Miss Paislie

this darling picture was taken by my photographer daughter

and no, I AM NOT old enough to be a great granny...LOL!!
