Christmas 2015 #39 - Version 2

If you can, please help me identify this RAK image.  I will be using it on a series of cards, each slightly different, on shimmery silver cas with dark green highlights.  I slightly offset the fold on this one and added the die cut (Cuttlebug border die) strip on the inside of the card.
 These cards are about 5x7 and will be sent with gift cards from Samaritan's purse.  Several organizations (World Vision, Mercy Corps, Samaritan's purse, among others) offer "gift" items that help those in need around the world.  We have started the tradition of selecting items in honor of our family members.  We hope this accomplishes a couple of goals - supporting a worthwhile cause and giving to our grandchildren the sense of helping others.  Often we have tried to match the gifts to interests of the recipient.  This year we read that 2,000 children (mostly in Africa) die each day from water borne disease often due to lack of a clean water system.  So our contribution this year goes to providing wells.
OK, off my soap box and back to the card.

Ready for 2016 Resolutions - NOT!

I really don't think these gals are taking the discussion of resolutions seriously - any more than I usually do!  (The inside verse is the AI:  happy 29th birthday from your 110 lb. friend!
The main image is from Art Impressions pop ups- I enhanced some of the color (umbrella, sun, chairs) with chalk pencils.  The saying is also AI.  Papers are from my never ending stash.

CAS Sympathy

A member of our Bible Study group recently had a fall, striking his head, and he did not survive.  Our pastor will be leading a memorial service for the group, so I will have this card available for members to sign.  It is 4.75x6.5.  I used a Darice embossing folder, and some lace, ribbon and Petaloo flowers - all have been in my stash for a few years!  I hope I did not take too many liberties with the sketch.
