Color Challenge at Come and Get It

Hi Everyone, I know it's been a while since I've posted but It's been a really busy time for me in the past while. Last weekend I was part of a street festival here in my home town. I had a booth there so I have been busy getting ready for it. It was a great day and had a great time. After that I was busy with meetings, and just doing a whole bunch of different things. I still haven't even put the stuff away from the Street Festival, but my goal today is to get that stuff put away and get my house back in some sort of order, but before I do that I have a card to show you which was used a double purpose. As Yesterday I went to a get together for demonstrators only put on by the lovely Heather Summers. She is a wonderful personable person. I learned a lot from her and she was very generous with her knowledge as well as with her workshops. Thanks Heather. Anyway I did this card for a swap that we had during this event, and I also made it for the Come and Get it Color Challenge. Hope you all like it. Thanks for stopping in

Stamping 411 Challenge again

This is my take on the Stamping 411 sketch this week. I have a lady at work who asked for some congratulations cards and I didn't have a one in my stash, so here is the first one that I've made, will make about a half dozen more and then she can choose, which she likes. The flower was colored using aqua painter and ink from the rose red ink pad to match the colors of the paper and ink used.
Thanks again for looking

Close as a Memory

These are two sympathy cards I've made for a resident to give to a couple of other residents in the condo where I work, They both lost their husbands this past week. It's hard sometimes working at a place for so long and you get to know some of the residents. I will miss one of the gentlemen especially, as he was a warm hearted gentleman and always had a smile on his face and a friendly hello. He was taken way to young, only 69 years old, but had some health issues, such as lupus, which attacks all the organs eventually. Anyway I hope that these cards will give the two ladies a bit of comfort during this time.
The first card was done with the thoughts and prayers set on a shaving cream background, which I had left over from a class I had taught a while ago. The second card is the close as a memory set. Thanks for looking.
