This card serves two purposes. First it is my entry to One Crazy Stamper's February challenge Red White & Dies. I used Cottage Cutz Fancy Floral Background and Memory Box Oriel and Lunette Butterflies purchased at OCS. I will then send it to our daughter who celebrates her birthday later this month.

 It has been a while, I still enjoy crafting but seldom post. Recently I have been playing with various Dies, Punches and Viva Inka - Gold paints to create background with embossing folders. Here are two of the completed cards. All products used can be purchased at One Crazy Stamper 25 Mill St. Bolton ON. L7E 1C3.

Well here I am at the end of 2013, a very silent year on my blog but after making this Christmas card for our daughter using Brenda Walton Reindeer die from Sizzix and Frostyville Border from Memory Box I got inspired. Both dies were purchased at my favorite Craft Store ONE CRAZY STAMPER. hopefully you will hear from me more frequently in 2014.
Wishing everyone a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year, filled with much blessing.

HAPPY 50th ANNIVERSARY

"Hither to has the Lord led us." I can hardly believe that half a century ago I said "I do" to the love of my youth. I look back on  times of joy, times of tears countless arguments ,hurts and heartaches, but we agree that the sweetest words we ever said was "I DO". I made this card for Richard (notice his grey hair and for me..only my hairdresser knows for sure.) The image is from S.W.A.L.K collection Engaged, coloured with Copic markers. As we continue this journey together, our prayer is that we will be faithful to our Lord and to honour Him in every area of our lives. For my younger friends, I just want to encourage all of you to persevere even when the going is tough, it is worth it.  Molly.
