A New Card & A Milestone Reached

I have not been crafting very much lately, I've been busy with taxes and baseball and taking better care of myself, i.e. going to bed early, getting up early to workout. Some of my time as been spent napping with the early rising ;).

The Card Crew is back at Scrapshotz and as I'm not a cardmaker, I'm trying to do these challenges. It also gets me using up the copious amounts of product I own, I'm not complaining, just sayin' ;)

This weeks challenge was to use vellum. Rebecca created this beautiful card with embossed vellum:

Mine can not hold a candle to this beauty, in fact, it's kind of hard to tell where the vellum is but I say stick a fork in it and call it done ;)

I used some Echo Park, again, don't know why but I've been drawn to this line lots lately. The vellum is the blue background the stickers are sitting on. This will make a cute thank you card or just a note card.

This morning marked a milestone for me, it was the first time I've read the entire bible all 66 books of it! It's taken a couple of years, at least but I can now say that I've read it all at least once in my life. Does this mean that I can put this book away since I've "finished" it? Nope. It's my life handbook and I keep it within easy reach. Now I'm going to work on the last 3 or 4 unfinished bible studies sitting on my bookshelf!
