"Best Day Ever"

Hello beautiful people on this Monday, January 28, 2019.
Did you have a great weekend?   Was it one of the "best" you have ever had?
Have you ever had a "best day"?  How do we explain or identify a "best day"?

This is my personal feeling:
When I've been given the opportunity to wake up, have all my senses operating, being able to move, thinking logically and being spiritual enlighten, then I know it is going to be the "best day ever" no matter what.  Routinely, having my mind, body and soul structured on a solid foundation gives me the pleasure of saying "best day ever".   I know there will be bumps and knocks from things and people  during my daily routine but if I don't let them  take my positive thinking away, then, yes, it will be the "best day ever".  I don't need a lot of frills and folly or places to go to make me complete. I enjoy the smallest things in life.   That's me!

Here is a card I made to share with you:

What did I use?cardstock: PaperandMore light pink;  Recollections black, pink, white green; Kraft and corrugated ; DP from Hunkydory
dies: TH skeleton leaves;  Alina Craft  curved edge rectangle
stamp: Studio 490 Wendy Vecchi script stamp
embellishments:  Prima flower, hemp cord; lace

I hope this will be your "best day ever".  Not because you went somewhere that you had never gone before...not that you did something that you had never done before...not that you ate something that you had never eaten before...not that you saw an old friend that you had been wanting to see...it is because you are just being you and loving it.

Thanks for the view, the comments and the support.  Please come again.

Sending you a hug and love,

"Stamperia Old Lace"

Good Thursday, June 7, 2018 to all.
In my opinion, it has been a very fast week.  Zip, zip, zip and it's all over and the beginning of another weekend.  One more working day in this week and we will be there enjoying another break.
Yesterday I shared lace and pearls with you on a card.  Thanks for so many beautiful comments.  I assume it was pleasing to the eye and inspirational as well.
Today, I'm doing day #2 of lace and pearls using Stamperia "Old Lace" paper pad, more faux pearls and real lace.  I hope you enjoy this card as well as you did the one that was done on Wednesday:

What Do You Really Like About Spring?

Hello Friends, Followers and Viewers,

One more day before Friday and then we will be headed to fun and excitement for the weekend.  On yesterday I titled my post, “SPRING…good, Allergies…BAD”.  Spring is good and there are many things that you and I love about this time of the year.  When winter is over and it stops releasing its icy grip, we all begin to remember why we like spring and or summer so much.  There is nothing like sunny mornings, lighter evenings and the thought of summer to cheer us all up. We also think about warmer temperatures, spring flowers, opening up windows, cleaning and sprucing up the house and garden. We cannot forget those blossoms that are beautiful; (even though they cause havoc for me), the cherry, pear, and plum as well as spring flowers; forsythia, hyacinths, daffodils and tulips.

I would love to get a comment from everyone who reads this post.  Please let me know or answer this question:  “What do you like about spring?”

Today’s share is a Happy Easter card.  The supplies used are: beige and brown Bazzill cardstock; patterned paper from Colorbok Sunset glow; Martha Stewart dogwood stickers; computer generated sentiment; Spellbinders Opulent Oval die; faux rhinestones; hand drawn bird; prima flower

Technique: Cut card base 4 ¼ by 5 1/2; brown mat is cut 1/8” less than base and the patterned paper is cut 1/8” less than brown mat.  Dogwood sticker was place on patterned paper and the hand drawn bird was placed on the sticker (backed with pop-up). Place prima flower on the tail of the bird. The opulent ovals die was used to cut out the generated sentiment.  4 faux rhinestones were placed around the sentiment.  Here you have another Clean and Simple Card.

Send your comment letting me know what you like about spring.  Enjoyed having you view today.  Come back again.

Sending you a hug and Love

Lois
