BookEndz Challenge

Hi there!  Happy Wednesday!  Only 4 days left, can you believe it?  I thought I was all done with gifts, but I just learned of a shipping snafu that means a gift I thought I had all taken care of  is no longer going to arrive on time, so I will have to run out today, in the pouring rain, and pick up a replacement.  Otherwise, I'm happy to be pretty much ready for the weekend.  Before I head out, I'm popping in to share a card I made for the BookEndz Challenge on Suzanne Dean's Color Me Creative site.  If you haven't heard of this before, BookEndz is a fun cyber book and craft group.  You can check out all the details here.  Each month, the group reads and discusses new books.  There is also a challenge where you can create a project inspired by the current book selection.   This month's main book is An Invisible Thread by Laura Schroff & Alex Tresniowski.  It's a true story about an unlikely meeting of a young panhandler and a busy sales executive on a New York City street and the bond they form that changes both of their lives forever. 

Here is my card for the challenge:

I focused on the friendship between the woman and the young boy.  I know that Laura Schroff was not as old as the woman in my image, but I was inspired by the two of them just spending time together doing simple things like baking, etc.   I merged two Mo Manning images - Mummu's Nissu and For Teacher 2.  I printed the merged image on Cryogen White and colored with Copics.  The patterned paper is from the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Rosy 6x6 pad.  A gingham bow and button and a few adhesive pearls finished my card.

Thanks for dropping by!  Hope you have a great day!
