Shoe Fettish


I made the card featured in this post for a relative of mine who lives nearby a few weeks ago.  She was sweet enough to have my husband and me over for Easter dinner on very short notice. The meal was delicious and I had a great time hearing stories of her younger years in a different time--she’s a fantastic lady! And she loves shoes. Since she downsized her home and no longer collects tiny decorative shoes, I made her a special card with her favorite color purple to thank her for the wonderful Easter memory created that evening that she had us over.

Card Details:
Studio G shoe stamp (Kolette Hall)
Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 10
Ranger silver embossing powder
Dienamics Solid Bracket Border
Quickutz border dots
*SU! Textured Impressions Designer Frames (oval)
*SU! Jewels--Basic Pearls

Happy Mother's Day!


There is no person as important as my Mom--the one I always wanted to emulate and the one I always listened to (even when I pretended not to during those challenging teen years).  I count my blessings to have such a wonderful example to follow.  Not only for my Mom who gave birth to me but to my beautiful Mother In Law.  I hope that I can one day be as great a Mother as they have been to me. Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms and Moms-to-be out there and enjoy your memories or special time with your own Mom!
Stay inspired,
Sabrina

Thinking Pink


The Washington DC Avon Walk for Breast Cancer  took place several weekends ago.  It is an event that my Aunt Mary faithfully trains for, fund raises for and participates in every year. She has raised more than $51,000 over the last 12 years and her commitment has never wavered. I am in awe of her dedication to such a wonderful cause... Breast cancer has touched someone close to many of us and I am thankful to those who are sacrificing in order to help eradicate this horrible disease. I made this card for my Aunt who is definitely “in it to end it”. 
Stay inspired,  Sabrina
