A Brown Tie Affair

Finally!! It was so nice to be able to be in my studio again, although a little rusty, it felt good!

I made this for today's color challenge the colors in the challenge were sage shadow, chocolate chip, and very vanilla, such pretty colors together!!

I did have some trouble with inspiration today but hopefully it will return as the week goes on.





Thank you so much for all your birthday wishes, you have all made me feel so special! I will be posting all the birthday cards that I received from my stamping friends in the next day or two, they are all so gorgeous!!

Here is a picture of my new nose piercing, I will take a better picture once it has healed a bit. Actually it didn't hurt as much as i thought is way going to, it just stung while it was being pierced once the jewelery was in it was fine and today it is fine too!

Looks good Kelly, it's the same side as mine!

I faithfully used Bactine till it was completely healed, that stuff works miracles!

Happy Belated Birthday Kelly.
Can I ask a question - what is holding the center of the ribbon together - is it sage shaddow ribbon or some sort of bling thing.

Happy Belated Birthday. Must say that I am jealous of your nose piercing. I have wanted to get mine done, but feel I am too old!

Such a pretty card, Kelly! I love your very elegant looking card. I really love the pretty image and beautiful bow. The color combo is fabulous too!

Wow, you're brave getting a nose piercing. I don't think I could do it. . .besides, I have allergies so I may have a problem with a nose pierce. How do you blow your nose?

Hi Kelly!

I was just thinking the same thing...haven't seen you post in a while, I was reading someone else's post & the mentioned "Kelly", I immediately thought of you & that I haven't seen you post in a while.

I hope all is well with you & your family.

I hope to see you stamping & creating real soon.
