Thinking of You Card

Hello Everyone ~ need a masculine Thinking of You Card?

Well yesterday I managed to get my apartment cleaned with Barb’s help.  Today I will work on the kitchen and get get it finished.  I had done most of it but left a few countertops to use and did not touch the refrigerator.  I will do the refrigerator today and pack up all the things that are left.  I will also pack my car with what I have left other than my suitcase.  That will leave me my bathroom to clean on Monday morning as well as take the blow up mattress apart.  I will then request a walk through to see if everything is ok.  I will then turn in my keys and will head to my temporary residence for the week.  I am hoping I can get the occupancy permit later this week so I can move in and at least stay at my house.  I have to head to Jess’ the week after as we are having Zoie’s birthday party.  I am hoping to find a dog sitter so I don’t have to take Bijou with me.  She gets car sick so I have to medicate her which I don’t like.  I will have a better idea at the end of next week.

I am having a heck of a time with my computer.  For some reason Firefox will not let me Pin to Pinterest or SUDSOL.  It also was giving me issues with downloading.  I spent over an hour struggling with this.  So frustrating.  Then I went to upload my video for today’s card and for some reason I do not have the video showing how I made the card.  I also discovered another one of my videos was not there.  So yesterday was not a good technology day for me.  I will be contacting Firefox to see what the issue could be.  I do not want to have to use another browser as I like Firefox but if it will not allow me to do what I need to do I will have to switch.

For today’s card I had this idea to make a masculine card.  The twist was I wanted to use a stamp set that most of the time you see as a feminine card.  I pulled out Wishing You Well set and looked at the bouquet image.  I saw wheat and decided to use it and use colors that would be considered masculine.  I stamped the image using Soft Suede ink.  Then using my Stitched Rectangles I cut out the image.  I mounted it onto a Shaded Spruce card base using dimensionals.  I did not want a ribbon on this since it was a masculine card so I decided to use a piece of linen thread.  I tied a knot and attached it with a glue dot.  I stamped the simple sentiment at the bottom right hand corner using the Shaded Spruce ink.  Here is my completed Thinking of You Card.
