All JAZZED Up! and Pay It Forward!
So I’ve finished my Holiday cards, addressed and in the mail. Boy I have to say I’m ready to move on to something else - don’t get me wrong I love making Christmas and Holiday/Winter cards…….. I’m just really ready to move to another theme. With that being said, I’ve got a bright and cheerful little sample using one of the Uplifting Phrases from Verve Visual’s new sentiment set - remember there are 4 new sets available and a couple of remix sets that Julee has.
This sample is pretty straight forward.
Sample details:
Stamps: Music Notes (Inkadinkado); Sentiment from Uplifting Phrases (Verve Visual)
Paper: Soft Sky & Wild Wasabi(SU), White (Classic Crest); pattern paper The All Dressed Up stack (DCWV) *Note this paper is the best - already patterned and glitterfied for you! watch for more samples using these glamorous prints - BLING Baby! Ink: Black VersaFine
Accessories: Word Window Punch and dimensionals (SU); mini brads (Queen & Co); ribbon May Arts
Another another note - I’ve made a promise to my friend Julie Koerber to participate in a PAY IT FORWARD. It really is pretty simple. I promise to send a little something, something to the first 3 people who comment and commit to PAY IT FORWARD - your participation is to post on your blog a PAY IT FORWARD notice and send something (I know we all have extra cards or projects just begging to be sent to a new home) to three people. Leave in your comment PAY IT FORWARD and I will contact you for your mailing address. I can’t wait to receive Julie’s little surprise and will be sure to share. Enjoy your day….. Lila

Lila,
How could I resist the opportunity to get a little something possibly made by you!?!
I’ll most certainly pay it forward. What a very, very fun idea!

Hmmmm, I read this on your blog and then I also read it on Alex’s. I think this idea is fantastic and would even consider participating but not enough for me to start a blog
That’s just one more thing I do not need
In consideration of this, however, I will pay something forward to someone and then I can consider myself participated and I won’t expect anything in return whatsoevah!
Love ya, girl.
Your sistah Cindy!

Sistah Cindy!!!
I understand why you don’t have a blog…. with that being said - I considered your proposal to pay it forward. Rather than posting the request on your absent blog, how about you put it in a note to your three recipients to pay it forward. I’m considering you a participant.
You know, in the news recently, at a Starbucks a customer in the front of the line told the cashier he wanted to pay for the next customer, the next customer told the cashier he wanted to pay for the next customer in line, and so on, and so on - they didn’t use a blog either. I think the whole concept is to pay it forward……. Bless you and much love to my sistah, lila

Ok girlfriend! You are ON! I will do it on the weekend. (This week is kickin’ my butt and it’s only Monday!). I actually did a couple of sweet somethings for someone yesterday and today but since I didn’t read this until tonight I will do three more with your suggested note
It’s a grand idea.
Love ya, Sistah!
Oh, and Court, don’t BARF on your mom! Love you too
Smooches!

LOVE this card!!! I am not the least bit musically inclined, but I always love a card with musical notes on it — they are just so pretty — as is this card!!!
