Invitation and another card for Nancy

Hi All, so whats that title all about?
 I am so excited, I have been invited by Pat from Technique Junkies to help with the make and takes at the Heirloom's Novi Rubber Stamp & Paper Arts Festival, in Novi, Michigan on Sunday, August 4th from 11 to 3.  If anyone is in the area and at the show, please stop by and say hi.  I am sure Pat will have some fun techniques to try, and if you have time, sign up for one of the classes Pat is offering on Friday;  Dynamic Dimensions, or Distress Stain Express, they both look like fun!
In case you have noticed the recurring quote on my cards, there is a reason for that.  My friend Nancy has asked me to make some Anniversary party invites for a really special couple she is close with.  So I am trying to come up with some options for her to choose from.  I love this paper,  it is a new one from Sassy Designs, they have some gorgeous digital paper packs and have been running some fabulous sales too!
Well that's it for today, it would be awesome to meet some of you at the Heirloom's Novi Rubber Stamp & Paper Arts Festival Sunday.  Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

    Lucky you Diane, it will surely be fun - and they are lucky, to have YOU there. I would love to come over, but the bus to Michigan doesn't run on Sundays! The card is wonderful, and i like the fresh colours and design on the paper! Hugs, Valerie

    Diane, how fun! If I lived nearby, I would certainly stop by! Your cards are so gorgeous; so inspiring and I just love your color schemes; this paper is really fabulous! I love the simplicity since the paper itself takes the worry out of adding anything else, doesn't it? Love it!

    Wow what a beautiful card. Blue is my favorite color. I love your little net flower (I assume it is a flower). Even with clicking on the pic I am not sure but it is perfect for this card anyway.
    I am sure you will have such fun. I am so happy for you.

    You will have so much FUN and I'm sure learn a little along the way as well as to what is 'out there'. Have to agree with you - that is fabulous paper you have used on the card, I must go check out the site. Your friend is so lucky you have you to design the cards for her. hugs, Donna

    Loving the greens and blues here and the colour combo is just divine. Very unusual... the ribbon looks pretty and the layout is super.

    wow, what fun, Pat is so cool! Are you teaching a class too, I took the Friday night design and treasure class with her, well and 3 other vendors, it was like speed dating, you have 30 minutes to make a project then you have to move to the next table, it was fun, watch out though, Pat will try and make you sing LOL!

    Congrats on your invite to do the "Make & Take!" That's fabulous! I might have been somewhere nearby on Sunday as I was at the end of the 127 yard sale in MI. I know I would enJOY going to one of your workshops. I see you have made another beautiful card.
