Card for Sister:)

Hi there! Thank you for being here, I'm overwhelmed by your support and kind words. This is a scheduled post; we are planning a one week vacation to Rome, so just wanted to have this done before we leave.

This week's challenge theme over at Digital Pencil Too is again settled by our precious hostess  Elaine and she wants us to be 

Now, what can be simpler than this? Music is part of our lives, so is crafting. Let's mix them up, I'm sure the result can't be but wonderful:) 
For my card, I was inspired by a French song- Laam- Petite Soeur; I'm a French language, culture and music lover, I even speak French with my little one (who goes to a German speaking kindergarten and we are Romanians...lol).
I have been planning making a card for my sister for a long time; just didn't seem to find the right time and state of mind for that. Actually, when I first saw this image on Dorcas' blog, I knew I had to have it. I even went so far as to ask the card from Dorcas:) but she also had it done for her sis. So I actually stole the idea from here along with the sentiment:) Thanks for the inspiration sweetie. Luv ya dearly!




"Recipe":
Stamp: Mo Manning- Stepsisters
Coloring medium: copics/promarkers
Embellishments: Wild Orchid Crafts- flowers, pins and ribbon
Dies: nestabilities- Fleur de Lys Squares,

I'll be borrowing the sentiment shortly..Love that you and your family speak so many languages always told my husband to only speak to the boys in italian but did he listen...no,

Iulia this is just stunningly coloured and so, so pretty. Love the design, colour palette, just about everything. The sentiment is so clever too and just about describes how I feel about my own Sister and the look on the little one's face is priceless.
