Another Elegant Card

Hi Everyone!! Hey, I made another elegant card!! Yipee!! Actually, I had stamped and embossed this image 3 times with the plan to create a card with the images lined up 3 in a row. Well, when I tried to fit them on a card. . .the images were way too big to fit even two of them!! LOL!! Rather than waste the images, I decided to make another card with one of the image.

I found this gold embellishment (that gold metal thing in front of my image). . .it was in my scrap box. I don't even know where it came from. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know I had it! It's probably been sitting in that box for years just waiting to be used. Well, it's this embellishments lucky day!! I finally used it!!

Anyway. . .I created a tutorial on how to color your elegant image with Copic Markers. . .Click Here for the tutorial. I mean, there's nothing to it but if you want instructions check out the tutorial.

Okay. . I have a lot things to chit-chat about today!! LOL! There's days when I have a lot to talk about and today is the day!! LOL! First of all, I have FABULOUS news!! My daughter got accepted to one of the University of California campuses. We're still waiting on the others but I wanted my daughter to get accepted to at least one of the UC campuses. . .any campus, I didn't care.

This means, I won't have to pay out of state tuition, she'll be attending one of the best universities in the US and she'll be able to come home often. If she didn't get accepted to any of the UC campuses, that would mean she would either have to attend a private school (if she were to be accepted by one of them) and we'll be broke for probably several years or attend a university out of state and we will only be able to see our daughter once or twice a year and that would be very sad.

All of the UC campuses are on the top 100 of public universities in the world with UC Berkeley at number 1 position which my daughter did not apply to. This is based on the Newsweek ranking by the way in the case any one wants to argue about it. Sometimes people get emotional about this subject. Not sure why? She didn't want to apply to Berkeley because she said that she didn't want to feel overly pressured by all the smarties and highly intellectual students there! LOL!

Anyway. . .enough of my chit-chat. I was going to write more but it's already long as it is so I'll save it for tomorrow's post! LOL!

Nothing much else to the card. It's actually a very simple card. That's the beauty of elegant images. . .you can create a card that looks like you did a lot work to create it but the truth is you didn't much of anything!! Gotta love that!!

Anyhoo. . .hope you all have a fabulous day!!
