Sympathy Card

Needed a sympathy card to send to an elder's family at church.

He passed away expectantly last week.

I was so blessed by his leadership of communion over the past several years.

Since I just cut into my MME Lost and Found paper I bought well over a year ago that I used for another challenge I decided to use it for this one (and another to be shared later).

I am submitting this card into the 

 Simon Says Stamp: Thinking of You/Sympathy challenge.

Supplies:

Stamps: Verve

Papers:  MME

Other: Spellbinders Lacey Circles, Hemptique String, 
EK dimensional foam, MS butterfly punch

 Reminder about my Card Drive for Addison.

A Hello Card for Lanie!

Bought this Lost and Found paper when it came out last year and 

shoved it in my storage box.

Not sure why I bought it b/c it really doesn't go with anything I scrapbook and I ordered enough for a two page layout.  I have passed over this paper so many times over the past year trying to find the mojo to use it.

The current Lawnscaping Challenge is to dust something off and use it.  

Well, I did it.

I pulled all the papers and decided that it WAS going to be used!
 There's a couple stitches on this one too which is a rarity for me.

I came up with this little "hello" card that will be headed to Nikki Sivils who is doing a card drive for Lanie, her former employee who is battling cancer.

 

Supplies:

Stamps: Lawn Fawn's "Quinn's ABCs" and "You've Got Mail"

Papers:  MME

Burlap Ribbon

I am also submitting this unto the Simon Says Stamp: Thinking Of You Challenge
B/c I am thinking of this woman and I hope this card will bring her joy and the Moxie Fab World Canvas, Cork and Burlap Challenge. 

Please consider joining this card drive and even the one I am hosting too 
called a Card Drive for Addison, my friend's little girl who was diagnosed 
with Leukemia at the end of September. Great prizes!

Thank for stopping by,

Christmas card using washi!

Sharing another Christmas card.

This was was inspired by the Freckled Fawn Card Sketch contest at PageMaps. 

So happy to use my washi tape!  I only have three rolls!

I stamped the star from the set on the yellow washi.

The red polka dot to the left of the circle is also washi tape.
