Good morning blog friends!! Hope you are staying warm, seems most of the country is in for some nippy weather!! I’m good as long as I have socks on – if my feet are warm, then I can craft the day away :-) Today I’m sharing a lavender friendship card that I finished up…Thanksgiving preparations are calling me though, so this will be a short one. The sentiment is from a new JustRite Papercraft set called Sweet Hearts. I pulled a couple of my favorite Spellbinders for my layers on this card including Spellbinders Diamond Effects, Spellbinders Decorative Label Eight, Spellbinders Labels Eighteen, Spellbinders Moroccan Accents and Spellbinders Love Locket. I mused to myself that I don’t reach for lavender near enough – its such a soft pretty color…
Of course I took a second to bling it up with pearls…just feels naked without :-)

I wish I could spell the “noises” I make when I see your cards. Gasp, with MMMmmmm delicious, and unbelievable! Thanks for your wonderful ideas.

Curious what type of pop up thing you use to raise the layers on your beautiful creations?
Beautiful, I love that soft color and your ability to layer the dies is just amazing!!

SOOOOO LOVELY BECCA!!! You could even spritz this with Lavender spray!:) IT’S TOTALLY BEAUTIFUL!!!! SO FEMININE & SWEET!!!!!!!!:) LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the DIES!!!!!!!:) LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the AFFECTS OF THE DIES that ONLY YOU can produce!!!!!!!!!!:) (I tell my husband, you’re the QUEEN OF DIES!):)
My first reaction to your charming card, was to smile. A big smile. It just spoke to me. I’m very fond of this colour palette, the lovely sentiment and your magnificent design. This is a winner! But then again, everything you do is.
Becca,
Oh, how I love this color! I am going to attempt to create a similar card for my mother-in-law, who also loves lilac. I look forward to visiting you,because of your creativity and inspiration. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Much joy to you and yours!
Beautiful card and so true. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
What a beautiful friendship card!!! I love the layers, and I love that you used dies that have been around a while. I need good ideas like this to put those older dies back into use. Thanks, Becca!!
Hi Becca. This card is stunning. Just love the colours. Hugs. Jan from the U.K
You’ve done it again! You’ve taken “nice, but ordinary” and made something spectacular and extraordinary!
Just love this very lovely lavender card with its nice layering and the ribbon that makes it looks so elegant.
So fresh and delicate looking. Makes me almost forget about having to shovel the driveway 3 times in less than 18 hrs.
Love the colors on this one! That lavender is a soft and pretty color! I love the addition of the pearls. Another beautiful card!
Oh Becca your card is not only elegant but ‘eloquent’ – it certainly speaks eloquently to me. What a gifted lady you are and so generous with your ideas, tips and techniques. It’s difficult to grasp the fact that it all started out as a plain sheet of paper, some ribbon and pearls just innocently ‘lolling’ about on your desk!
PS: I love your blog. (I know it’s not apparent!!) Mary x
Dear Becca,
OOOOOh i like your beautiful design. It is so pretty and the soft colour of ivory and lilac just compliment each other perfectly. I’m with the earlier comment on giving it that hint of lavender smell would just finish it. This is a definite sight deficient card by the textures going on in it and with the spray, it would just engage they’re other senses up a couple of notches. The sentiment on the front of the card could be brailled on the inside for them to read. The perfect card in always then.
Love and crafty hugs

WoW~ This card took my breath away. I have so much to learn and so little $ to spend. I’d also like more good days, you see I’m very, very disabled and I have to feel good, be in the right mood and have my husband get my supplies.
That is just beautiful. love the heart. Lots of pearls.
Thanks for sharing

I just sat and stared when this card came up on my screen – how utterly beautiful. Becca, I can no longer think of any new words to use when describing your creations, I’ve used my entire vocabulary! You continue to amaze and stun me with your talent and inner beauty. This Thanksgiving, I give thanks to Our Lord for so many things but Becca Feeken and Darsie Bruno are right there at the top of the list. Much love…
Oh Becca…. you take my breath away…..this card is so beautiful, delicate and feminine. You are truly a very gifted generous lady. You have used dies that have been around for some time which reminds us to keep looking at our older dies which may be lurking ‘unused’ and forgotten(!!) ..
Thank you so much.
