I was feeling I had used up my MOJO yesterday when I created my White on White card. I said as much to Donna. She said, "Well it was awfully pretty, Mom." After dragging around all day, I thought I need to get something done, so I had printed off this darling little digi from Sugar Nellie named Winifred. I think these little beauties are my favorite digis of all time. I also had gotten the cartridge, Frame of Mind at a good deal so Donna suggested I combine the two. (You know she hasn't posted in a while, so she's got all this creativity stored inside her head.) LOL So I started working on this card after she picked up her little Yorkie, Buttons. I have a question for you. Do you think I overdid this card a bit? She is also going to be entered in CDAC/Petaloo Promo.

Petaloo is sponsoring CDAC again. It will begin March 15 and go through the 31st. Details to follow later. They sent the Design Team some items to create with. We are busy getting our DT projects ready. I have mine posted but thought since I had some of the flowers left, I would create one I could post on my blog. This is it. This card will be entered in the CDAC/Petaloo Promo as well.

I'm happy to report Donna has almost fully recovered from her surgery. She has one more week before going back to work. I must say I have enjoyed her not working. We have spent more time together and I have loved it. I wish she didn't have to go back. If we could only win the lottery. Of course, you have to buy a ticket to win, right?
When I saw this beautiful digistamp I had to have it. I immediately thought of Donna. She had told me she had to make a card for a friend who is expecting a daughter any minute. So I offered to help her since I wanted to color this little baby. I hope Taylor will like it.

I've had to take a break from my design team work during my move but I was able to complete this one for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge #137. Priscilla has changed this challenge blog a monthly challenge so you will have plenty of time to participate. She would like it if you used one of her images but it is not a requirement. You must use at least one flower in this month's challenge. I used her Sunflower image for my flowers.
I have used the other image, Victoria, earlier but I thought she worked perfectly with Priscilla's sunflower.

I have finally relocated to GA waiting for my townhouse to be built. Donna & Craig have generously taken Max & I in. I've just come back from SC. My sister had breast cancer surgery and I stayed with her a few days. She is doing fine. She will find out later if she has to have chemo. She will definitely have radiation. Prayers for her would be appreciated.
For my first card, I decided I wanted to use one of the Sugar Nellie digis. Her name is Victoria. Isn't she adorable?
