Apothecary Art ~ Thinking of You

Today's card is for some dear friends that lost their mother/grandmother this week. :(  She was such a lovely, wonderful woman and will be missed!  She always had a kind word to say, and was friendly and easy to talk to.  I had actually made this card for my upcoming February stamp a stack, and as I was going through my sympathy/thinking of you cards I decided this was the one I wanted to send.  

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Apothecary Art Birthday

It's time for another sketch challenge from the Red Hot Stampers.  I thought I'd use some colors I haven't used lately and the new set Apothecary Art with the Framelits Labels from the new Occasions Mini Catalog.  To see some other cards with this sketch go to the Red Hot Stampers blog.  Play along too if you'd like!

Yes, I finally did something on the inside of my card!  Kind of plain and simple, but better than nothing. :)

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Boho Blossoms Birthday

Here's my last card to share with you from my January stamp a stack.  It's definitely more of a spring  card, but when I was planning my cards it was more like spring out anyway. lol  Wow has that changed over the past couple of days!  I think we're finally having winter here...at least for a couple of days.  

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Fabulous Florets Watercolor

Here I thought I was doing a little better blogging and my router decides to die on me...and, of course, all my pics are on my laptop and I can't send them to my blog w/o the internet!  Well, I finally managed to get the laptop (from my daughter...after all, it's not working) and find just the right cord to hook up to my laptop so I could get a picture to my blog...whew! lol  Anyway, this is another card I did at my last stamp a stack.  I thought I was really going to be challenging the ladies with the water coloring on this one (using the aqua painters).  I did a little bit, but their cards all turned out lovely!  

Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC19 - Amour

Well, I sure have been enjoying the snow we've had so far here in Michigan!  I really don't like being cold, but I do like seeing everything covered with the white fluffy stuff. I especially enjoy seeing the trees covered in white. :)  Now on to today's card...it's Sunday so that means it's time for another Red Hot challenge.  Here is my take on the sketch. I'm not big into Valentine's Day, but thought I'd do a card that's half way there by using some Valentine colors and adding "amour". :)  

You can join in the challenge too if you'd like.  Just head over to the Red Hot Stampers blog here.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
