She Got It, She Got IT!

Can you guess who SHE is, and WHAT SHE got?
Nope, it's not Annabelle.  Nope it's not me.  Yup, it's Sarah.  Sarah got her temporary license! 
I can't believe it's Saturday already.  I've had a busy week.  Several doctor appts. and volunteering Thursday and Friday mornings. Last night I got to stamp with Emily.  It's been such a long time since we've stamped together.  She's been busy being a teacher of first graders with all the work that comes with that.  

While I, on the other hand am making cards for lots of people, and loving it.  

I stamped in versamark then embossed in gold ep. I added the red and black frame and the gold ribbon. I used SU's gold paper and embossed with the stylish stripes ef. I added eyelets since I haven't used them in ages. This took a long time to put together. This was a sketch challenge and a Hope You Can Cling To challenge to use gold.
 I stamped the image and colored it with Copic Markers. I added a black frame, lace, designer paper and then the image. I stamped the words on daffodil paper. This was a challenge that you had to show friendship.  It too will be going to Hope Challenge.
For this challenge we were supposed to make a card that showed where we go for peace and quiet.
My place for peace and quiet is the beach. If I can't go to the beach, I watch a video I made in North Carolina. It brings me such a peace and calm.
I stamped the scene in Memento Tuxedo Black ink then colored the plant, water, sand and rocks in Copic Markers. Then I sponged the sky with daffodil, tangerine and real red inks. I added the verse using dimensionals.
This challenge for Hope You Can Cling To, was to use pink, yellow and green in a card, with a touch of Opal.
 I stamped the flowers in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I sprayed the shimmer spray then added the Crystal Stickles to the flower centers. I added a thin layer of black behind the flowers using my perfect layers tool and a cutting tool. The pistachio was embossed with Cherry Blossoms by Darice.
This challenge you had to take the first letter of your avitar name and make a card.  My avitar name is bensarmom.  So, I brayered blue on the background.
I embossed the white paper then brayered a trio of blue inks on the background. I added the text and cut it out with the window frames framelits, and layered them. I added ribbon and rhinestones.
This was a quick, easy card to make. I embossed it then sponged it with pacific point ink. I added the rhinestones then the squares to spell JOY.  This was the inspiration challenge for today where you looked at a wedding site and made a card from an image there.
Here's a song to leave you with tonight.  It's Newsboys, Live With Abandon.  I uploaded this earlier, but it was only about 1 minute.  Here's the whole version with words.

Blessing of the Day:Sarah got her temporary license.
Thanks for stopping by.
Blessings,
