I had posted a pink poppy card a few weeks back, and now here comes my purple poppy card, and my yellow poppy card.
I used a stamp by stampendous...Pretty Poppies CRS5096
colored the cards with copics.
I gave these two cards as Christmas gifts, I forgot to take pics of the little sentiment cards that I enclosed inside the cards. For each of the cards. I made up three sentiment cards...each with a different sentiment, One for a Birthday card, one for a Sympathy card, and sentiment that could be used for everyday. I put strips of removable tape on the back of the sentiment squares so that they could pull off the tape liner and put down which sentiment they wanted to use for their card.
Speaking of Yellow
I made the above card for a former classmate of my daughter. We were talking at my daughter's Christmas party when I told her that I could not participate in some of the games because I have vertigo right now. She asked how I got that because she told me that she had the same problem. I told her how my hubby at to take me to the emergency room a few weeks ago because of it and some other problems. I thought that when he took me to the emergency room that they would treat me, maybe keep me for the night! But No, they kept me for a few days and while I was there....because of the dizziness, that I was feeling, I wasn't allowed out of bed.
My daughter's friend looked at me, and said "Did they give you the yellow socks?"
I said "Yes!" And that's how I found out that was the code for me not being allowed to get out of bed. When my mother was in the hospital she always came home with slipper socks but they were always blue or another color. I don't ever remember her having "yellow" socks!
To me that was a perfect opportunity to make a personalized card for my daughter's friend.
I made the card to read...
The stockings were hung...
and on the inside
by the chimney with care.
knowing that there would always be
yellow socks to wear.
Hope she got a chuckle out of it.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today
Blessings,
Jill ---Who always has cold feet
and is wearing her yellow slipper socks.
