W Cloud 9 card


Good morning...  I'm squeezing in a down to the wire card for the Cloud9 Blog hop.  I've got a few monogramed cards I need to make for a card order, so since I didn't have any scrable titles I'd use a sticker to personalize the card.  


And here's a tip (an ode to Ms. Karen), if your pipes freeze and the hair dryer doesn't work, pull out the heat gun...  then if you stand outside freezing for an hour and the pipes still don't thaw out, call your husband, complain and go inside and make a card.

Okay...I absolutely love the card...but I need to hear the story on the frozen pipes...

Oh, Erin! I hope the pipes are not frozen because your heat went out. We've had that happen before and it's just awful (and COLD) waiting for it to come back on.

Your card ROCKS! I am psyched to see that you drew inspiration from the tiles and used a sticker instead - the layered look with the banner is great. And the stamping in black is beautiful.

Thanks so very much for joining us at Cloud9!

I love this, Erin! The stripe of text at the bottom just looks so fabulous with the stars layered on it - I really love that! Glad you joined us for this month's Cloud9 Blog Hop!

Oh no! No fun having to thaw out your pipes! I hope they're functioning again.
Great idea to use a monogram sticker in place of the Scrabble tiles! The stamped text is lovely withe the glittered stars as accents.
