A post on Darnell's blog directed me to this card challenge for Marie. Making cards for those who are sick is one of the important things in my life so it gives me warm fuzzies to add to this collection of get well wishes.
For the past month or so I have tried to use up pieces of paper that I have played with and this background paper was colored using the embossing folder, ink and water technique. At some time I die cut butterflies and I was left with two open spaces so I stamped and die cut two more butterflies in a complimentary color. I added lots of bling and then I stamped the sentiment.
Paper - SU!
Embossing Folder - Cuttlebug "Textile"
Ink - SU!
Die Cut & Stamp - MFT "Winged Beauties"
Stamp - Precious Remembrance "Positive Thoughts"
Dear Marie,
May the love and well wishes from family and friends help you through this difficult time.
My best to you,
Barbara Roe

ReplyDeleteWords cannot express fully how I felt when I received your beautiful card, I have to say i even shed a tear. Not only did you take the time out to make this beauty but you posted it and your beautiful words really lifted my spirits. I will treasure this for ever and when I feel a little low I will read your kind words again and again.
