Two Big Losers

Some days I think that I will never lose another pound.  On those days I have to stop and think about two of my buddies who have been doing an absolutely unbelievable job of sticking with it.  Each one of them has lost over 100 pounds.  It hasn't been fast and it hasn't been easy.  They are working and working and working.  Every day they have to make the choice to eat the right foods and get off the couch to exercise.  It's not easy but they are doing it and they are inspirational.  Hats off to Dutch and Tazzie!  You gals ROCK!  Keep it up and off.  I love you  both and miss you guys immensely - but at least thanks to Facebook I get to see how you're doing every step of the way.  I am so proud of you both.

Of course I made two cards.  Pretty much the same but with a little change in colors.  The hardest decision is which card goes to which person.  I guess I'll be doing eenie, meenie, minie, mo (LOL, it's a Mo image).  

There's a couple of the new My Favorite Things die-namics.  I just love the "Retro Squares" border  and the arrows in "Lead the Way" are just plain fun.  Can you tell that they are saying "NO!" to cupcakes?  Maybe that's where I'm going wrong, I do love me a piece of cake but I digress...This paper is from My Mind's Eye.  When I took my daughter shopping at Marshalls there were a few paper pads on sale for half price, how could I pass that up?! 

Here's the deets:
stamp - Mo Manning "Hope"
ink - hp printer; Bic marker for sentiments
paper - Stampin' Up "Wild Wasabi" and "Soft Sky" card stock; My Mind's Eye "Lime Twist - Life of the Party" dp
miscellaneous - copics; brads; My Favorite Things "Retro Squares" border, "Rounded Banner Stax" and "Lead the Way" die-namics
