For my Hero


I've spent many hours farting around, downloading various and useless apps, signing up for various photo managing accounts, and trying them out and having very little success uploading photos from my iPad to blogger. BUT, I think I finally figured out a workable solution! Yay me! I'm sure there are better ways, but for  those interested, I will give you a brief step by step.

I think I will use Flickr to upload and edit my photos.  I can add a very basic watermark, which is cool! From there I go into the Blogsy app and drag my photo over to the post with my Flickr account. From there I can continue with my post or just save and post as a draft to my blog and work on it in blogger.  This is prolly common sense for most of you blog pros, but I had a really hard time figuring it out all on my lonesome:)

Anyways, back to the meat of the post! This is my card, ta-da. I am really loving using Mojo Monday sketches!  I used the computer for the main sentiment and regular stamps for the 'love' and 'forever'.


I used my silhouette to make the circle and scalloped circle.  I used Harper's Boutique by The Paper Studio for the dp, a Prima flower and Wild Orchid Craft leaves.  
This was made for my husband and the sentiment is so perfect.  He has helped me become such a better person with my self-esteem and confidence.  He is the positive to my negative, the social to my anti- social. He really is my better half in so many ways!

He really liked this card and I hope you all do, too! Have a fabulous weekend!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Challenge (I'm so trendy- chevron)
Mojo Monday (sketch #258)
Papertake Weekly (things that make you go 'aww')

  2. Danielle, you've been farting around? Well, I never! (Yeah, right.)
    I think this is a fabulous masculine card! Love the background and your design! The sentiment is way cool--love that! I would think your hubby would have liked his card!
    Now get back to work and no more farting. Um, I mean, no more farting around.
