Wow, it's been ages since I played with the
Bloggers Challenge. My long hospital stayed sure played havoc with my art creation. However, this week the challenge is
quotes and here is my card. One thing about the time I spent in the hospital -- I had lots of time to think. My New Year resolution is to appreciate life a lot more and to be more aware of my health. This quote by Goethe says it all.
I based my layout on the
Mojo Monday sketch challenge 327. I started with a background of designer paper. The quote is done in the chalkboard technique from Tim Holtz. The flowers and leaves are Cheery Lynn die cuts. I added a ribbon of lace.
I am also entering my card in these additional challenges:
Word Art Wednesday which is
anything goes; Friends of Speedy (MFP) which is
New Year's resolution;
Simple Salutations (MFP) which is a
sentiment plus black/white; and
Frilly & Funkie which is
New Year's resolutions.

Thanks for sharing your pretty card and your resolution with us. Hope today is a great day.
Barbara, I love this beautiful card. The lace, the flowers and the color combo are all fabulous choices.
Hi Barbara - thank you for linking up to MFP challenge at FOSTV this week - I am not sure if you know our rules over at Marks Finest Papers but only one card creation can be uploaded to one challenge and not multiple challenges we offer. Please be sure you make a different card for any other challenge at MFP you would like to enter. Have a lovely day. Gail DT FOSTV

Wow! I love your card, Barb!!! The chalk board technique is amazing and the flowers you created are the perfect finishing touch. I have also experienced health issues over the past year, so your resolution is especially meaningful to me. Thank you so much for being a part of the Frilly and Funkie Challenge!! I wish you a healthy and prosperous New Year!

Love your elegant black and white card. Love the flowers and the lace too. So delightfully blessed that you joined us at Word Art Wednesday. A new challenge starts tomorrow so, I hope you visit us again. Living you with the message of the Lord in Psalm 107:9, "For He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things." Hugs!
