My first card post

So ,this is my first card to post. I needed a card for a friend in need of a prayer, so I got busy and made this for her. After weeks of seeing all you talented people out there, I was truly inspired. The stamp is from Close to My Heart (aka DOTS)  called Miss May. And the card background is from the set Little Things Matter and the checked paper is also Garden Green from GTMH  My colors are all from Close To My Heart CTHM Garden green, Hollyhock, Buttercup. The embellishments are also from CTMH.  The sentiment is from My Sentiments Exactly. The decorative punch is Fiskars. I really need some Copic markers, because it is hard to get the nice coverage and shading with CTMH markers. Well, one down and many more to go. Thanks for visiting my blog.

  2. Is that the one for Linda, or someone else? That would also make a really good 'Thinking of You' theme for the spring too.

  6. This is precious!

    I read your bio; I hope you will post some of your scrapbook pages. I am the reverse: I started as a stamper and I try to do a little scrapbooking. Sometimes I make a card and I don't even realize that I did not stamp at all! Process is more important than outcome, right?

    I wanted to thank you for leaving a comment on my blog today. Yours is one of the nicest comments I have received in 3+ years of blogging. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely thought :)
