Share Handmade Kindness.

I was motivated by Jennifer's video on Share Handmade Kindness, unfortunately I didn't realize it was for a stranger this week.  However, it is handmade with the desire of putting a smile on someone's face.  A few years back I was given a starter friendship bread bag, the recipe and of course the bread.  I baked 6 friendship breads and will be giving them away.  One in particular will be going to a sweet lady that lost her husband to cancer last year, I know it will mean a lot to her.  I also made a card and tag for the friend that gave me the starter bag.  Enjoy!
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Fancy Trees

When I saw the sketch I thought of these trees, I had seen this technique and also this card.  Great inspiration from these two ladies.  Enjoy!

Baby Girl

In need of a baby girl card but short on time.  Luckily the sketch from Sweet Sunday made it easy to put together.  Lots of cute ideas from the team as well as the "challenge-es".  Used an old sticker I had, embossing folder and punches.  Enjoy!

Flower Trio Punch

The colors from Runway Inspired and the sketch from Freshly Made inspired this card.  Tags and birthdays added the final touch to this card.  I first punched the three flowers and then cut the tag.  I stamped and punched the flowers and pop them just a bit with a glue dot.  Enjoy!

Autumm Card

Playing again with distress inks.  It takes practice to get the feel of the pressure and blending, but I'll keep at it until I get it right.  I heat embossed the leave in black, fuzzy cut it and with the Versamark brush I created sort of a border to make the leave pop more and heat embossed in black too.  Enjoy!
