Lean on me

Years ago I got a wonderful vintage photo from Betty. I printed it and saved it and recently I came by it and thought of a new way to use it. This time I made a big card with it for one of the elderly people of Church. 
The stamps I used come from a Simon Says Stamp stampset with the name:"Beautiful Flowers". Used both in front and in the background.

Used Distress Inks to stamp the flowers and to color them. Paper I used is from a Watercolour Pad by Søstrene Grenes. 

As always as I look at this photo, I think how special it is to have sisters or friends who are there for you when you need it. 

And always I hear the words of the song in my head as sang by DC Talk: 

Sometimes in out lives, we all have pain, we all have sorrow, but if we are wise, we know that there's always tomorrow.

Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on, for it won't be long, till I'm gonna need, somebody to lean on.

Thank you for visiting!

Much appreciated!

Roses

Last week I had so much fun with the Altenew Halftone Hearts Nesting Dies, and the Altenew Roses, from the: "Amazing you" stampset. I made a whole lot of Valentine's cards with these elements.
The roses in this card are colored with Copics. The oval frame is cut with my Cricut. 

Here are the roses colored with aqua colors. Never seen such but I loved it. On all of my Valentine cards I used a branch die by Hero Arts. DI087. The sentiment is in a Hero Arts box with 4 sentiments on tags. LP253. On the right side in the photo you see my little scissors. I really loved to cut these roses. I always Love to cut in paper haha!

(Backup) Snow

Recently we got some snow. Although it only was a thin layer, it turned my garden in a something more Beautiful and less boring. I saw some Lovely things wich I like to share here.


And here are some cards inspired by snowy and icy circumstances.

This card is made with an Hero Arts stampset and a Provo Craft embossing folder in the background. Snowflakes from Craft Emotions.

This card is made with the same Hero Arts stampset MH1018C, and a background of Simon Says Stamp, SSS101670.
