sympathy, freebies

I don't like to make sympathy card, but when I had to make on for a dear friend I found this cartridge in the craft room for free "Art Nouveau"

I liked the way it turned out so I made 12 more.

now I am ready but I hope I don't need one for a very long time.

Exploding Handbag

Hello to all,  today I found this cute "exploding handbag" on
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/explodinghandbag/
I watched the video and figured it looked easy enough, so I gave it a try, after all it is only paper.
I  love the way it turned out and it really did not take long to create. it took me longer to find my velcro

a sympathy card

taken to young

today is a sad day, My cousins daughter at the age of 24 was in a car accident and died as a result of her injuries.    it took me awhile to make these cards because I had 2 to make one for my cousin and her family and one for my godparents who are Nicole's grandparents.

                       I had 2 butterflies from the first card and added them to the inside of the 2nd

                                               one of God's angels, Nicole, went home...8-9-14

Mojo Monday # 345 made 2

Last one for tonight.... More birthday cards for June and I am still not done  looks like 8 more, but it is still cool here in WI and I am sure I will finish before the weather warms up.
most of the time I have to think a bit before cards sketches come together, not this one, it worked out so nicely, I am going to try it in pastels for a woman also.
