For Marie Tucker

Unfortunately, I need to send another sympathy card.  Marie has a deep faith, and I hope she finds this a comforting (digi) verse.  The scroll frame is embossed on shiny silvery cs.

S is for Savior - Christmas 2019

This card is created using only papers from the Faith and Hope pad, by Craftsmart. - with the addition of a bit of striped Washi tape to tie the parts together.  It has become increasingly difficult for me to color images due to my macular degeneration, so I am grateful for the variety of this pack.  This card is 5.5 x 4.25.    It is another card made for the challenge at Beccy's Place this month - she is encouraging a card a day.  I am not close, but I am entering when I can.  Thanks to all the other challenge sponsors as well.

For Luther's family

Once again, I need a sympathy card.  This is for a family whose faith is strong, so I wanted to share a message proclaiming the peace and joy of the certainty of eternal life.  The verse is by Word Art, and I used papers from a stack called Faith.  The oval dies are from Spellbinders.

Imagine That - 8-10-17 Inspiration

Lil Patch of Crafty Friends

For a few months I have the pleasure of being a guest designer for Imagine That Digistamp.  This cute Jenn is my card for today.    If you visit the blog here you will see the great cards created by the other designers.  And if you visit the store, you will find this set including Jenn and several sentiments, a well as a lot more.  The pixilated dp is available in a set here as well as a part of this bundle.
I colored her with Prismas, backed her with Textile embossing, and added a shiny pink bow.  The oval die is by Spellbinders Majestic Elements.  There is some glitter, and I used shiny paint for her boots and trim on the hat.

Our granddaughter-in-law loves her little dog.  This is not the right breed, but was so cute I had to select it for her card.  The image and sentiment are from Beccy's Place.  I used papers from my stash, and added some shiny gems.

Lovely as a Tree Thank you

This is an oldie but goodie - SU's Lovely as a Tree - one of my favorites for a masculine or all purpose card.  I used up a bit of DP, and embossed the bg with Vines by LifeStyle Crafts.
