Pretties Thursday

I am SO sorry that I am once again late with my card! I have been going through a lot of personal stuff lately and I don't know if you can tell or not but I've been pretty depressed. I don't know what my deal has been but I just haven't wanted to do anything. :( Today I am feeling better and am thinking that today is a new day so here I am smiling AND showing off my latest Pretties creation...This gorgeous sketch is this week's Pretties challenge on the forum! Danielle has some awesome sketches doesn't she? I haven't used my Simply Special set in awhile and I was in a floral mood today so I thought I would use my Euphoria dp. I paper pieced the water can and colored the rest of the image with my Copics. My circles are a combination of Nesties and a circle punch. I added some frilly ribbon and two little jewels in the corner and you've got one simple, floral card. :)

How about a Pretties update (taken from the main Paper Pretties page): Our move went smoothly and we are so glad to be in our new home! In the process we have been able to add some new items to the store. Some fun new colors of cardstock, some yummy new ribbon and some more of the marvy punches - ON SALE!!! Don't forget to check out our clearance section too for below cost items. When they're gone, they're gone. Happy Shopping!

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone and be sure to take some time out for yourself today. You deserve it! :)

So pretty Christi. I'm with Yvette. I love all the pink.

I'm glad to hear that you're feeling a bit better today. Depression can be a hard thing. Make sure you're taking care of yourself.
