Hello sweet friends!! Lol, I guess it would be ever so much an understatement that I’ve been slightly preoccupied. The days are rushing by and it seems like we ‘just’ turned the corner into the new year. As I was sitting at the craft table this evening I kept thinking there was something kind of important about February. Oh yeah, didn’t I start blogging in February? I can’t believe that I totally slept my fourth year blogging anniversary. (Shaking head) It’s not like I don’t peek in almost every day . . . not sure what happened!! I wanna celebrate so I’ll be putting my thinking cap on to dream up something for this year. By the way, if you haven’t already subscribed you might want to (hint, hint)!
In the mean time, I have a card to share today that was inspired by this old card I happened to pull out of my stored card stash yesterday. I simply updated the look with new Spellbinders, using Spellbinders™ Splendid Circles as the basis for a medallion, stacking Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Four on top and tucking into each side my favorite swirly embellishment from Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Tags and Accents. I went hunting for a sentiment to fill in the frame created and landed upon a sweet Quietfire Design sentiment called With Heart Anything is Possible. I pulled out some wire edged ribbon for a double bow as well as pearls and black crystals for a punch of accent color.
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: Quietfire Design – With Heart Anything is Possible Paper: Recollections – Regent Street, Bazzill, Kraft Ink: Versafine Black Onyx Accessories: Spellbinders™ Splendid Circles, Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Four, Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Tags and Accents, Recollections Pearls, Prima Crystals, Ribbon, Bead Landing Bead. |
See you soon!! Remember, what ever you do, to make it uniquely you.

Becca this is a beautiful card, I just love your work. Happy Anniversary!
I’ve been subscribed by email for a couple of years. I can’t wait to see how you celebrate your blogaversary!
If you could see my face right at this minute you would see me laughing with delight at this card. Its laughter that is thrilled with your new card today… that you produced another jaw dropper….that you never cease to amaze me. I guess I am just taken with the dramatic colors. Rich colors….well, yes and bows. I cannot wait until I can get in my art room and hit it! Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift of encouragement that comes in the form of a card.
Happy 4th Anniversary! I sincerely hope you are very proud of yourself. Look at all you have accomplished in 4 short years. It’s nothing short of remarkable. Bravo Becca! You hit one out of the park with this card. It is stunning. Thank you for everything you do, share and give. I appreciate you so much.
Hi Becca,
Happy Anniversary it sure does not feel like 4 years I have been looking at your blog.
Another beautiful card, I don’t know how you always get your paper and ribbons to match so good. Great work keep it up.Glad to hear you don’t have to have surgery for now.
Hi Becca,
I think todays card is delightful and I must admit it is up there with another green favourite of mine (Dec 8th 2011).
As I don’t have a blog of my own where I am able to recommend blogs that I like or follow (must find some help to do that asap) I recently put your blog onto one of my Pinterest boards. I also pinned your Taupe card of 7th Feb and already it has been repinned several times, including one repin by someone who likes the layout for a scrapbook page. You see your work is loved by so many people all over the world!!
Hope you are good. Hugs Linda x
Happy 4th Anniversary! Look at all that you have accomplished in 4 years…it completely amazes me. This card is just stunning. You always have the perfect ribbon to go with the paper! Thank you so much for sharing this and everything else that you do.
Wow, four Amazing Years. I’m doing a happy dance just for you.
Gorgeous! Love the colors you’ve used – the green tones are so pretty. Hugs, antonella :-)
BECCA – YOUR WORK IS SUCH A WELLSPRING OF REFRESHING TO ME! ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF MY DAY IS TO BE BLESSED BY THE WONDERFUL GIFT GOD HAS GIVEN YOU! I AM SO INSPIRED AND REFRESHED! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR EXQUISITE LABOURS OF LOVE! I APPRECIATE THEM SO MUCH MORE THAN I CAN TELL YOU! CHEERS!
Oh, Becca! So lovely! Thank you for using the stamp!
Congratulations on 4 years of outstanding creations!! What did we do without you?? You had been blogging a bit over one year when I started making cards so I have been blessed my entire journey with your work as inspiration. I have learned so much from you. THANK YOU!!
I love all your cards, you do such a great job on them, I envy you with all those spellbinders embellishment that you use, Maybe one of these days I might venture out into that world, keep on with your lovely work, Congratulation on your4 years of blogging, and Happy Valentines day,
I enjoy each time I visit your blog.
Cheers Anna
Congratulations on 4 years of blogging. When I found your blog I went back and looked at every entry because your cards were so beautiful.
I enjoy your beautiful cards and you inspire me! Thank you for sharing!
Becca,
This is a beautiful card. I don’t usually go for dark green but this is STUNNING. The bow is a beautiful accent. Another wonderful Becca card!
Happy 4th blog anniversary! I feel like I should be the one to celebrate as I receive so much joy and inspiration from your blogs (see me doing the happy dance). It never fails to amaze me how you get all the wonderful ideas for layering the Spellbinder dies – but I guess this is another reason you are “Amazing Grace”!! I enjoy my time spent at your blog and look forward to it everyday-please keep the creativity and inspiration flowing.
I am truly amazed by your creativity. This card is absolutely stunning and so was the Taupe card.
So lovely.
