Remember When ...

Hello friends!  Hope you are all doing very well!  I have some great news to share with you again!  Remember I thought I was going to finish my radiation treatments today (Wednesday)?  Well, I was surprised to learn that my last day was yesterday!!!  Yippppeeeee!  Treatments are done!!!!  Thank you so much to all of you for giving me your constant love and support on my pink journey ...  you've all been so WONDERFUL!!!!

Well, on to my card .. I've decided to make an acrylic card that I've not done for a LONG time!  And this time, I turned it into a card you can hang on a door.  Hope you like it!


Ohhhh and can you see the slightly blurred roses in the back?  Those are only some of the blooms in our backyard .. the batch that I've been waiting so patiently for has FINALLY showed us their beautiful faces!!!  sigh ... I LOVE them!!!  Here, I'll show you a quick pic of one of the bushes .. this one I'm going to show is called "Nancy Reagan" .. isn't she so beautiful?  :)


Alright .. well, I'd love to enter my card into:

That is such wonderful news, I am so pleased for you and you will be so relieved! (HUG)
Elise, this card is absolutely stunning, I have never heard of an acrylic card, can I ask you, do you decorate both sides in place of making an open card? Love the idea of a door hanger! Gosh you have so inspired me!- but then you always do! lol Judy x

Chelsea said...

Yabba-Dabba Doo!!! Did you celebrate with lots of champaign? lol Thanks for being so brave and sharing your pink journey with us. You are an inspiration. :)

As for this acrylic door hanger, it's so unique and so "Elise"! I love your coloring style.

You should take all your pictures like this...it's gorgeous! Perfect backdrop for an amazing project.

With Love.

Hi Sunshine! I just totally love your acrylic cards and this one is absolutely amazing! Tilda is just darling with the sweet little flowers in her hair. I can image her as you tending your garden. By the way your rose bush is gorgeous! I bet it smells divine. You should post a pic of all your roses so I can drool over them and wishing I had a rose garden. lol
Sigh.. and you did such an amazing job coloring Tilda using your Distress Inks. I also love the sweet little fence behind her it totally completes the card! Awesome job babe!!!!

Congratulations on your last radiation treatment, that is the best news. I am so proud of your strenght during your fight!!!
Love Bonnie
