"I Just Want To Say HELLO"

Good Tuesday, February 27, 2018.
What a wonderful day we are going to experience.  Some of us are on the job, working away...just having fun.  Some of us are still in bed waiting for the night shift...just having fun.   Some of us are outside enjoying the sunlight and sipping coffee, tea or something else...just having fun.  Some of us are getting ready to get those flower gardens and vegetables garden ready for planting...just having fun.
I, on the other hand, just finished a card and had fun doing it.  Something in the "blue" range  (I think I over did the blue).  Anyway, I've been too "pinkish" and I decided to change colors today.
I had my soldiers in mind while creating this and tried to use items that would not cause a lot of bulk in the envelope:

This is also a submission to http://www.wordartwednesday.blogspot.com
and a donation to my box "Cards For Soldiers"

Enabler's List:
cardstock is Neenah white; PaperandMore navy blue and light blue; Hunkydory wood grain cardstock
Designer Paper is from Kaisercraft Kaleidoscope paper pad and the flowers were cut out from Recollections Secret Gardenia paper pad
dies that were used came from Penny Black irregular rectangles; Nellie Snellen tags; and Spellbinders Romantic Blooms Three
chipboard was from BoBunny foliage laser cut chipboard
The wooden word "hello" and the "envelope" came from Kaisercraft wooden Flourish Pack
Stormy sky distress ink was used on the "hello" and around the tag.
Offray lace ribbon and Michael's blue polka dot trim ribbon

Thanks for taking a little time to enjoy this view today.
Come again...I love knowing you were here.

Sending you a hug and LOVE,
Lois

"Paper + Die = Card"

It's Friday, February 23, 2018.
The  last Friday in February my friends, followers, visitors and viewers. 
Are you doing the count down towards March?   If not, you should.  We have only five more days before you change your calendar.
This marks the beginning of the weekend.  Do you have plans?  I need some R & R and that's my plan.  Our daughter, son in love and my granddaughter came last weekend to see us.  Hopefully we will not have any guest showing up for dinner (lol).

Today, which is my busy day, I used a paper pad and a die to make a card.
Enabler's List:
cardstock: Neenah white; Kaisercraft  "Kaleidoscope"; black Recollections and Paper House "sliced"
die: Penny Black "border edger's"
ink: Distress Oxide black soot
foam tape and Art Glitter adhesive

Be your own kind of beautiful.  There are too many bullies and haters out here that will put you down for the least little thing.  They may not like your hair style, the way you dress, the way you talk or walk, your expressions or your intelligence.  Be your own kind of beautiful...love yourself without being selfish.  Keep your head held high no matter what you are called or no matter how people treat you.  If you believe in yourself...then nothing no one else say or do will matter.  YOU MATTER AND THAT IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT!

Have an enjoyable weekend.  Do something fun and exciting and think about me while doing it.  Come back to visit next week and please, don't forget to leave a comment.

Sending you a hug and LOVE,
Lois
