Your Day to Shine

it was our so-called "intensive week" last week at school, which meant that we were in class from 8 am until 7 pm everyday, except for one, which i spent preparing two presentations (one on the hu economy and the other about solar energy for an environmental sustainability elective). i'm not sure why they have this week, it was a bit much, but oh well. and this week i've been studying for an accounting exam, but had to take a break to make this card, based on the gorgeous sketch at 2 sketches 4 you. i've been wanting to use tulle since i saw it on terrie's blog (check it out, this lady makes truly beautiful things!) but it's taken me this long to find some here (that wasn't sold by the metre, that is). i used a fiskars border punch, some ribbon from rayher, and a flower pick i bought at a housewares store, which i took apart and put together bits of. the sentiment is from srm stickers.

thanks for stopping by and i hope you're enjoying your day so far!

ETA: when the boy came home, he looked at this card, and put it back on it's side! and i thought it looked better like that, so that's how i sent it out :)
