Black and white with a touch of yellow

This uses an image from Beccy's place, with a sentiment by SU.  The Helen Keller quote is part of the main image - I just put it above instead of underneath.
Our internet service has gone from bad to worse - that puts a damper on my challenge participation!  But I will keep making cards and enter when I can.

This is for a man in our congregation who has shingles - on top of severe macular degeneration and some other health issues - I hope the newspaper is not a negative in this situation.  I need more items for a guy!

For Janet

I am still experimenting with this set of Nesties Opulent Ovals- any help is appreciated.   The sentiment is from JustRite Fancy tags.  I flipped the sketch to showcase the lovely DP - a piece that was in a grab bag.
 The mat under the ovals is a pale peach, and the bg of the paper is more blue than it appears on the screen.  There is sheer,shimmery ribbon under the oval, and glitter on the roses and ovals.

Happy Birthday, yellow

This is a fun image to work with - a digi from The Alley Way - colored with Prismas.  I added a strip of punched grass and a sun - for a sunny summer day.  The DP is .  Basic Grey.  Petaloo flowers, shiny cord and Nesties complete the scene.
