CCAYR- E is for Exalt and F is for Faith

What says Faith better than an angel?:) I stamped the angel in white ink and stamped her in twinkle white sparkle. I took my distress inks in light blue and pink and added a couple of darker blues for the edges using a soft brush. I added the Merry Christmas sticker as well as the glitter border and stars. 

Stamp Sensations- Spring

The Four Seasons- Spring

My hubby's Uncle died unexpectedly 2 weeks ago. He wasn't in the best shape but we didn't think he was going to die this fast and soon. He had a heart attack in front of Michael's Aunt and a painter who was painting their living room. She went to him and started CPR while the paint called 911. She knew he was gone very quickly. It is very sad and she will be a bit lost as she did everything for him. The kind of wife many men dream of...he'd call for her and she'd be there. She made all his meals and catered to him. It sounds like she is a 50s housewife, but she is actually quite independent and strong. Anyhoo, we sent flowers and I made this card. I used the cuddlebug to emboss this frame image of flowers. I coloured them in with markers. I stamped the image in gold embossed powder and also coloured it in with tombow markers.

Alphabet-  Volume

I embossed this image using the cuddlebug and it came with a stencil cut which I used  to cut out the3 flowers. I took metallic markers to colour in the images with gold, purple and blue. I adhered the raised image with pop up dots. This is for a friend's birthday.

Try It On Tuesdays- Make It Feminine

My mom's best friend, Brigitte, turned 90 on Feb. 19th and her son and his wife had a birthday party for her inviting their 3 boys, their spouses, one grandchild and her daughter in law's parents. My brother, my hubby and I were there and Brigitte was so touched. They made a traditional German meal...wiener schnitzel, spatzle, red cabbage, glazed carrots, a cheese sauce and a mushroom gravy. For dessert, homemade apple strudel. It was delicious! 

Her favourite coloyr is blue so I took a mirrored card and placed some blue alcohol inks on it spreading it around for that mottled effect. I stamped the image in a lavender glitter and embossed it. I took distress inks and used a soft brush to colour the flowers. I stamped the saying in the same embossing powder and cut both out and adhered the card with pop up dots. 

I meant to showcase 2 of the cards a week earlier but I missed it. Have a happy Friday!
