My nephew and his wife from North Carolina flew up here for a brief and sad visit. My nephew's stepsister's 9 year old daughter lost her battle with brain cancer. So Jay and Lauren flew home for the wake and funeral. I hung around home yesterday cuz I wanted to see them before they headed up to Boston for their flight home. So....I played in the stampcave AND got assorted chores done.
So I have a few cards to share from yesterday as well as one from Tuesday.
This first card is one I did Tuesday for the Color Challenge at SCs. The image and sentiment are from SU.
This second card was done yesterday for the WT Challenge on SCS. Our goal was to create using green. The image used is called Foliage and is by Innovative Stamp Creations. The sentiment comes from a Mark's Finest Papers stamp set.
This third card was also created for the WT challenge on SCS (using green). I also did it for the Totally Stampalicious challenge this week which was to use a RED bow. The sentiment and this fabulous image are digis from Bugaboo Stamps. (and....let's all send good wishes that ALL my digis on my old fried computer hard drive can be saved.........I would be heartbroken to lose all of them......can you hear me whining????)
Thanks so very much for taking a few moments of your day to stop by. I really do cherish your visits. AND.....I send hugs to all.
