There is a new challenge blog I found very interesting: I Love Digi Challenge Blog. I wanted to join in the fun because I manly do hybrid projects, since I discovered the digi world I put something on my cards, crafts, etc...
This week challenge is: Think pink, I love pink and I wanted to make a card for a dear friend and send it to her, it was the perfect match
I used Michelle Perkett Pearl digi stamp that I won on one of her challenges at PCP (my Tutti-Frutti mermaid in a box was the winner!!) and as usual I colored her with my loved colored pencils. I did the inside too
I´m showing it because it´s something I don´t do often... The music sheet is a page from an old music book that I painted with white acrilic paint, the book is old so all the pages look yellowish and I wanted an ivory look instead, therefore I painted the sheet twice with a very diluted paint and that´s the result. The patterned paper is from a very generous lady Rebecca that gave it for free, it is a digi scrapbook paper that I printed out on thin cardstock cut out and layered over the music sheet. I pierced the papers and stitched them adding some pearled glass beads. The wave border is a cut out I did with my Cricut. I used the negative cut to make the inside of the card, it looked so beautiful I didn´t want to waste it... and I wanted to add a bookmark to the card also
I´m sending my friend a book, I thought a bookmark will be a nice touch. I loved and ejoyed making this card so much, hope my friend likes it too!
Now into the delicious Oatmeal Rolls
they look good, right? all I can say is they tasted lot more better!! they were so soft, with a wondeful smell of oats, the right amount of sugar so they go great with savory or sweet toppings.
Even I had them with the Broccoli Cheddar Soup I made before... simply delicious, thanks once more for sharing Marilyn!! they are now part of my favorites breads.
Believe in Mermaids...

I just love what you did with Pearl! Your coloring is absolutely stunning! I love what you did with the music paper...I'd never think to paint it like this, but it looks fabulous! Love your transition into the inside of the card too!
Beautiful detail,

Gorgeous! I love the idea of using the paint over the yellowed pages. I bought some sheet music and it is yellowed which is great for a lot of things, but not all. Thanks for sharing that idea. The rolls look yummy!
Wow this its truely lovely, it must have taken you some time to put it altogether. I am sure your freind will treasure it. Thanks for joining us at I love Digi.
