It was very very nice to hear from some of my supporters! After many months of absence I was not sure anyone would bother dropping in! Thanks to each of you. I will begin to create again someday soon when it is truly right for me. Please keep me in your prayers. I miss all of you! Thanks so much!

HUGS!

Hello all! It has been a long time since I have posted. A lot has gone on with me both physically and emotionally that has taken me away from my passion of card making and creating! I hope to be back creating in some form some day soon but until then, know I do miss all of you. I thought I would share a pic that I took of one of the flowers in my garden. Hope you all have a wonderful day and are staying safe and cool!

Justrite Prayers Go Up

Well it is hard to believe that another year has gone by. I wanted to say thank you to all that have supported me throughout the year! Today I had some time that I rarely get anymore to create a special card...goes out to all my blogging friends. I pray the coming new year will keep us all in good health and surround us with many blessings! The stamp I used is from the JustRite Kaleidoscope set. I added lots of bling as you can see! The shimmery silver paper that I used for my trim and the die cut is from Pizzazz Aplenty...although it is hard to get a good picture of this shimmery paper. Not much on my agenda until later on tonight...sitting with 2 of my grandchildren for the New Year after church...what better way to bring in the New Year than with our grandchildren! Again, thanks for all your support this year and best wishes to each and every one of you for a healthy and happy new year!

So for today, I have a really cute image to share with you!! This is an early release from Doodle Pantry and is called Colored Caterpillar Hugs...I just love it! My card is a center step card...there are  two patterned papers and the three sentiment are included with this image!! I embossed the background layer and the sentiment layer with a cuttlebug heart folder...the green die cuts on the step are from MFT and the swirlies are pieces of the Fanciful Flourish from Cheery Lynn Designs. Then to finish framing out the center frame, I used  iridescent string of pearls  from Pizzazz Aplenty. Ohhh and of course I had to add a little Stickles to the grass. :):)

Squigglefly Kris Kringle

 

Good morning! This morning I have a Squigglefly image to share with you...meet Kris Kringle! Is this the most awesome image or what???? The image is shaded so lovely that there is really no need for coloring but I chose to color his hat and the berries in his poinsettia. Also added a little glitter to the ball on his hat. The sentiment is computer generated by moi. I love this so much that I actually made 3 cards using this same image! Ohhh and I have to share that all the paper used on this card is from Pizzazz Aplenty...I just ordered some more of that awesome red card stock that feels like velvet...really honestly it just makes the card feel so expensive! The silver paper is some of Pizzazz Aplenty's shimmer card stock. How is that for some Pizzazz??!! Thank you so much for stopping by today...AND leaving some love! Each of you know that I will be by to see you as well...can't wait to see what you have today! Have a great day!

HUGS!
