A Thankful Thursday Sneak Peek - Acorny Thank You

Thankful Thursday is back!
Can you believe it?!?

Did you *ever* think I was going to re-instate my Thankful Thursday posts?

I will keep this brief - but today I am thankful that I finally cleaned up my stamp room enough to stamp again!  I know, I know, I really should be thankful about something a little less trivial, but honestly?  My mess was stressing me out.  So-->thankful for a cleaned-up room I am!

Seeing as I can finally see the table tops in my Craft Cave - here is my first attempt at using the Acorny Thank You stamp set and coordinating Acorn Builder Punch - and yes - these are available as a bundle!

I kept it simple since I had some more creating I wanted to do (that will post later today).  But for now - Thankful Thursday with a quick "Acorn Sneak Peek" is here!

Hope you all have a fantastic day.   God Bless,    ~Cynthia   <><

Club Card Done Oh So Well

Hey there friends

I just had several wonderful friends leave my home after creating some gorgeous cards at their monthly club night.  And one of my very artistic friends, Sonya, added her own little flair to one of the club cards to really step it up a notch.

I wanted to show my club members a brayer technique - and Sonya decided to emboss her image after she had finished stamping.  Of course, whenever you use the Square Lattice embossing folder after you've stamped, the image takes on the appearance of having been painted on canvas or linen.

Sonya embossed her card and what was initially a gorgeous card anyhow, became an absolute work of art.   She left here, card in hand, ready to give this gift of time and caring to a good friend who just lost his mother.

What a beautiful way to tell someone you are thinking of them during a difficult time in their life.

I hope all of my club members are as pleased with their creations as Sonya was.  And I hope when they pass their own cards on, they know how appreciative the recipients are!

Have a wonderful day my friends.  And despite our snowstorm yesterday, Spring is just around the corner.  Honest it is!!   :)

God Bless you all,       ~Cynthia     <><
