I recently spent a couple of days with one of my BFFs!  Her name is Phyllis and she has recently embarked on a new adventure in her life and is becoming a nurse.  I’m so inspired and impressed with her ability to go after the things that she wants (not to mention she has a very supportive husband, Joel).   Although, it has been hectic (she is on the fast track program) she has done one amazing job in keeping her training and studies going and even finding time to make some cards.  Oh yea, I need to mention she also heads up our “hydration bar” at church….;-) and helps with the bounce house and gigantic slide at the Ole City Park here in town when we have Summer in the Park series.

This card is a card that Phyllis made for our Children’s Church Pastor who just recently had a baby girl.  This is very antique looking and soft.  The baby buggy was cut twice (using Cricut), once out of tan card stock and again a little smaller out of vellum.  A little doodling and a rhinestone sets it off.  What looks like ribbon is actually a paper strip of vellum that has been embossed, giving it that Swiss dot look.  The buckle is a spellbinder die cut and the dots on it are glitter.  Rylee is also glittered and a MS border punch to finish it off.  Just perfect for a little girl.

Over the next couple of days I’m going to show case some more of Phyllis’ cards.  We had so much fun being together, making the card, trying different things to see what looked best and then coming up with the finish product.  I know her inspiration will shine through her cards and inspire you.
