Denied – again.

So I gots turned down for another Design Team. This isn’t the one I applied for with yesterday’s card. I REALLY want to be on that DT though. This one, to be honest, I can’t remember what it was – so could it have been that great? LOL Anyway – I got the big ol’ rejection e-mail last night along with an invitation to get 20% off at their store; thanks, but no thanks. Yes, I am the sour grapes kind – heh. So…..I guess this week is going to continue to suck until the bitter end!!

But – you gotta have faith, right? I was inspired by Michelle Wooderson’s blog yesterday to use some of the lighter more blase’ yet still beautiful Papertrey Ink colors. I have every color of paper, DP, ink and ribbon that they have and I find myself neglecting some that aren’t terribly loud, but still quite lovely. These colors were so soft and quiet, and going with my melancholy mood this week, I thought a nice scripture was appropriate. I also have some SU! brads on this and the next card – I’m not head-over-heels for their paper, but I do love their embellishments – especially these brad sets.

My friend Laura is on the Storage Units, Inks & More! DT and posts her challenge cards on her blog. Thought I should do more challenges to keep the creator inside of me thinkin’. This week’s Whachadoin’ Wednesday challenge was simple: any way you want to make it, but you can only use black, red and white. Totally up my alley that color combination is! I really like this card – lovin’ that Papertrey sheer white polka dot ribbon lately – isn’t it fantastic?

Thanks for stopping in and sharing my new passion with me.

Your kind words are a joy to read every day.
Have a good one, Girls.

    I do love that sheer polka dot ribbon! Don’t think I could ever tire of seeing that. Keep it up, and heed that scripture.
