House Mouse get well

This is for a young lady that was in a sledding accident, and hurt her back, she is going through physical therapy and her mom says she is healing well.
Stampabilities, house mouse design stamp, colored with pencils cut out with spellbinder die. Also used the biggest die for the card shape. Added rock candy stickles to the ice. The papers are all scraps I had laying on my desk, buttons I found at the flea market.




Thanks for stopping by,
We are suppose to get ice storms today, and then snow tomorrow,
not looking forward to the next few days.

Welcome baby

Julia designed this set and I was lucky enough to win it off her blog, I just love the vintage feel of this whole set. This will be going to a girl that recently had a baby boy. I picked the blue and brown combo because the few times I have seen him he has always been in this color combo :)

Both the image and sentiment stamps are from Cornish Heritage Farms, baby dear set. Spellbinder die. Felt ribbon from EK success, Border punch is Martha Stewarts.


Hope you are enjoying a great weekend,
Thanks for the comments,
Connie

The sentiment is from TPC studio stamps, mounted on spellbinder die, My minds eye paper, the border stamp is from Christina Renee collection, Fiskar border punch and embellished with Pebbles candy dots.


It is so nice and sunny today, that always lifts me up!!
Wishing you all a bright, fun weekend!

Fear thou not

This card is for a couple going through some rough times health wise. I liked this verse which is from a sweet n' sassy stamp set, thought it was perfect for the situation.  K&co. paper. Felt flower was found in the Target $ section last year I think, the punch flower is from eksuccess and the leaf punch is from Martha Stewart which I embossed lines in it. Spellbinder die used for the sentiment tag.


Well we are being told that it will get up to 40 degrees today and 45 tomorrow, hard to believe when I woke up and my gauge out back said 10, but I am excited for it non the less, the sun is shining, it's a beautiful day, hope you all are having a wonderful day,

Hello

One of the older ladies in our bible study group, is going through some rough time with her health.  Awhile back she gave me a small box with crafting stuff that she had that she said she felt she just wouldn't get time to use and thought maybe I could use them on my cards.  The ribbon and sticky back appliques were in that box, so I decided to use them on a card we want to send to her.  I put the appliques behind a Martha Stewart border punch.  I used Daisy D's paper on top, the bottom portion is from K&co.
Used my fiskar rotary cutter for the sentiment tag and the stamp is from Studio G.


Thank you so much for stopping by and your kind comments,
