Well today didn't go quite like I hoped. I got a call early this morning from the Living Center and my Dad was being taken to ER. I arrived at 8 and left after 2 when they admitted him with a high white count which signaled an infection. We drove home in a snowstorm and after notifying my siblings, I was bushed. It's now 9 pm and I'm just getting around to posting this card I made yesterday.
I cut the arched panel from PPP and stamped the tulips from PB. The remaining cs was embossed with a woodgrain folder and popped up over the image. The flowers are watercolored and the background inked with Altenew inks. I made this with
Inspired by All the Little Things photo in mind
but it is also great for
Addicted to CAS whose cue word is 'Delicate'. Pastel colored tulips make this card look delicate.
I'm cheating a little at
Less Is More. They want to see "What's outside your window" and I probably could have seen the beginnings of these tulips yesterday but they're covered in snow today.
Stay safe if you are in the path of the bad weather heading across the country.

Love the beautiful fresh tulips framed by the arch - so pretty, Bobby! I hope your Dad recovers quickly and you get the chance to relax. Thanks for taking time to join us at Less Is More :)
So sorry to hear about your dad, Bobby. I hope he is doing better today. He's so lucky to have you there to watch out for him. That's such a long day at the hospital for you too ... espeically with the worrying. Hopefully you were able to get some rest last night.
Love your soft and delicate tulips. What a pretty picture then make through you window. :) xx
Bobby, I'm so sad to read about your day yesterday and I do hope that today is a better one for you. I'll say a prayer that your father's infection clears quickly and that he'll soon be doing much better. xox
Your card is beautiful. The pastel pink on white really does have a delicate look to it. The other day, I noticed daffodils beginning to pop up, but everything is covered with ice today. I prefer the daffodils!!
Beautiful card Bobby...love your gorgeous tulips, they are my favorite flowers.
Putting your family on my prayer list. Hoping your dad gets better soon!! Your card is lovely, and I especially love those tulips; they're just gorgeous. Keep us posted about your dad... hugs, Bev
Hope your dad feels better soon....seems like everyone I know has a parent they are either taking care of or worried about. Cyber hugs and then your dealing with snow too! Love your beautiful tulips! Hope Spring returns soon!
Oh Bobby, I do hope your Dad is better soon. You tulips are perfect for our what's outside your window challenge because you can use your imagination too. Your card is very beautiful indeed.
Thank you for sharing it with us at Less is More.
