Framed Roses

Hi everyone, 

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know! 

The card I'm sharing with you today is one which was on my UFO pile for months, until late last year, since when it's been patiently waiting in the to-blog pile...

Although the colors used aren't usually among my favorites, I think their softness, and indeed that of the roses, is perfect as we venture into the unknowns 2021 with a grateful heart while also holding holding on to precious memories.

Card: Unbranded white and Clarity's ivory parchment

Groovi Plates: Tina's Symmetrical Floral Round (all the framing) and Linda's Roses and Lace

Tools and embellishments: Groovi and Pergamano embossing, perforating, and cutting tools, Perga liner pencils, and rhinestones from my stash

A Festive Wish

Hi everyone, 

Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know! 

Firstly, you're not seeing things... I am posting a non-challenge post on a Monday instead of my usual Wednesday, primarily so I don't forget!  With that in mind, after this utterly crazy year and whatever your beliefs, my festive wish for y'all is thus in the form of the Serenity Prayer...

So many of us have felt so out of control this year... a feeling that will likely only intensify with the emergence of the COVID mutation... and none of us know what tomorrow will bring... but I hope and indeed pray, that you and yours find some peace in our Savior's birth.  Christmas is very different this year, but it's not cancelled.  And with that, I also share a favorite Christmas creation of the year, details of which can be found in THIS post.  Yes, she is colored to look like me... grin!

For the prayer...

Card: Unbranded white, Clarity clear parchment and DP

Groovi Plates: King Charles Duet and Serenity Prayer

Tools and embellishments: Groovi and Pergamano embossing, perforating, and cutting tools, Perga color pens, and Clarity's handmade paper flowers

Challenges...

I'll be back on the first of the year with another creation, so I hope you'll join me then.  In the meantime, I again wish you peace,

Swirled Heart With Love

Card: Unbranded white, and Clarity's clear parchment and DP

Groovi Plates: November NDC (heart), February NDC (with love), Nested Scallop Squares, and Nested Scallop Circles

Tools and embellishments: Groovi and Pergamano embossing, perforating, and cutting tools, Pergamano silver gel pen, Perga liner pens, and rhinestones from my stash
