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!
