Thinking of You

Hello My Friends

Yesterday I showed you a white/silver and purple Gatefold card that I felt was just perfect as a wedding card.

Well today's card is a variation of that one, but equally as gorgeous (in my opinion).  

I have a wonderful friend whom I love dearly, and both she and her husband are going through quite a difficult time right now as they face some health issues and uncertainty about the future.  

I wanted to create a card for them both that would let them know that they are in our thoughts, and in our hearts, and on our minds.  And we are keeping them in our prayers, knowing that God will bring them through this.  Somehow.

I hope that all of you are aware, continually, of just how much you are loved by so many others around you.  And to all of my friends, and especially the recipient of this card....I love you lots and lots!

God Bless you all,     ~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     <><
