Bling it on Challenge



Ahh, it is Wednesday and that means the weekend is getting closer and closer. I have this card to show you that I am entering on the Mo's Challenge Blog. The challenge this week is to "bling it on". I realized that my stash is woefully missing a lot of bling. The closest thing I have is rhinestones, and I have enough of them that I could be the rhinestone cowboy! I used the image Prince Edward Island and colored it with Copics. For my bling I added some purple rhinestones and some shimmery, sheer ribbon, both from my stash. Papers are DCWV.

I have a "girl day" planned with my niece on Friday since she is on Spring Break, we are going to spend the day doing whatever she wants to do. On the good side she wants me to bring my Copics, I have been slowly building her a card making and stamping collection and she has a great collection of colored pencils but no Copics. So that part will be fun, but on the more negative side I see mall shopping in my future. I love to shop in craft stores, kitchen stores and book stores and that's about it. I almost never go shopping in a mall because to do all of that walking I have to use my cane. But since the day is about Zoie and not me, I will mall shop with a smile on my face!

If you will please keep my Dad and his Mom in your thoughts and prayers. She is in the hospital, they aren't quite sure what is going on, but she isn't doing too good. My Dad is also having a hard time with watching her go through this.

This card is darling! Love the image and your coloring is fab :) I will say a prayer for you and your family. Having an ill parent is just heart wrenching, and it's so difficult feeling helpless.
