Heartful Thanks–Cardabilities Sketch Challenge

Greetings!  I ran across the most wonderful and helpful site for inspiration.  All of the projects are exactly what I try to achieve!  I get excited with every scroll of the mouse when I’m on that site.  Everything is so beautiful!.  The site is Cardabilities, and if it wasn’t for NetworkedBlogs that I’m on, I never would have found it! 
 

 

And here is the sketch

I hope you have a wonderful week!

Embossed Thank You

My husband, daughters, and grand kids all went to town, I was hurting too bad, so I decided to stay home.  I was hoping to be able to catch up on some of my stamping, but I was only able to achieve one card today.  “(  Well, one card is better than no cards! 

Stamp Set’s used:  Because I Care for the sentiment and Fresh Vintage.  The embossed image is the Flower Garden embossing folder.  This card originally inspired by Stampin with Kris.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Sorry I have been of the grid for a while.  Have been devoting my time on family things.  My Mom's health is going down hill and her Dr. isn't expecting her to be with us too much longer.  Her organs are shutting down and she is unable to feed herself, sit up, etc... Her right arm is turning black because she is unable to use it.

Upsy Daisy Thank You

With this Thank You card I used Daffodil Delight and Baja Breeze.  I used my lacey circles die from Spellbinders and embossed with my Pacific Blue embossing powder.  The littl faux buttons up at the top was created with my Sweet Buttons Embosslits die.  It embosses AND cuts the card stock at the same time when it runs through the Big Shot. The "Thank you" sentiment is from the Because I Care stamp set.

Remember, I would appreciate any kind of feedback you may have!  That's how we learn & grow.

Many Blessings & Inky Hugs!
