Thinking of You

This layout involves a layered stencil set which has unusual dimensions:  the layers were long enough to allow me to stencil over the entire card base, front and back!  The result is a wonderfully decorative look that is totally unexpected . . .

 



I also love the white line around each image which Christina allowed for when designing the stencils.  This adds both definition and charm to these delightful flowers.  Can’t wait to play with this set while using some really dramatic colors . . .

Comfort

My card for the family of Eleanor, my friend of 43 years who has gone Home to her Creator . . .

 


She was an extraordinary woman who spent a lifetime in dedicated and loving service to anyone who needed extra help.  The damaged souls she helped achieve strong and sturdy lives are too many to count. 

Rest in peace, Eleanor . . .
