{S.S.} Believe With All Your Heart

Hi everyone!!  I have to say that I had a SUPER exciting weekend!!!
My baby sister got engaged this weekend and her fabulous fiancé , included us in a scavenger hunt he had set up for her!!  So excited for both of them!!!  So anywho... I got so much crafting this weekend, that when it came to completing this weeks card for Sentimental Sundays, I completely lost all mojo!!
It just vanished!!  I colored the image 4 times, then I tried the chalkboard technique another 4...
I was DONE!!!

So today, I had to head to the other side of town and made a pit stop at Michaels! Browsed and browsed, before stopping at the Deco Foil.  So this foiling stuff seems to be the new craze now and figured I'd give it a try!!  Came home and tried 4 times and the foil would not transfer completely!!
So I had one more sheet left, give it one more shot!! 
Now... Isn't that image just gorgeous!!??  We are being sponsored by PolkaDoodles and I wanted to badly to use this image. This image is form January's release, which is absolutely amazing but, then I saw March's release... OMG!!!  You really ought to seek them out if you've haven't already!!! 
 So now you see why, I was so determined.  You can't really can't see the foil in this image but, if you look at the sentiment in the upper left and then at the image you can see it's sort of green. 
I had to take this picture at a weird angle, so that I could capture the foil on camera but, isn't that cool!?!?!?!  It looks so pretty in person!!  I can see this becoming very addicting!!!  LOL

So I will hope that you will swing by Sentimental Sundays and join us this week.  Our challenge is all about: 
Fairies/Fairy Tales

 I would like to share this project in the following challenges: 

Hugs.

{S.S.} #212: When I Grow Up....

Good morning folks...
I am double posting today!!!  Shame on me, but I promise you will not mind!!  :) 
I am sharing my card that I created for this weeks challenge at Sentimental Sundays. 
This weeks theme is: 
When I GROW up....
Yes, this is very cool fire truck!!  :)  I made this card for my very good friend's, who's fiance just graduated from the Fire Academy!!  We are all very excited and proud of him.  So I thought it would be fun to create this for him!! 
I cut out the left window..Can you see the colored image peeking through the vellum?
The only way to capture this shot, was to lay the card flat so that you could see the image.

Here is the cute image inside the card.  Isn't he adorable!?!?!?
We are being sponsored this week by Polkadoodles Digi and his name is Fireman Jim
I colored this guy with my Copic markers and did some fussy cutting.  The sentiment is from Unity Stamps, can't think of the kit right off the top of my head. 

So I hope you will come by and join us this week. 
I would like to enter this card in the following: 

Hugs,
