Thinking of you...
I made this card for Grandpa Harry in NY. He's going to be hospitalized and we wanted to let him know our thoughts and prayers are with him.
I can always count on the talented ladies over at Unscripted Sketches to get me started with a FAB sketch:) I've never used a photo on a card before, but I LIKE it!!! The credit for the color combo goes to a fairly new challenge, Jazzy Inspirations. Check them out if you havent already. There's blog candy up for grabs and a shot at being a Guest Designer. The music is really cool, too ;~)
Although it doesn't show well in the photo, I used my Fiskars texture plates to add a swirly design to the black CS and since I don't own any Nestabilities yet :( I had to create the blue mat piece by cutting out brackets with my cricut and using the center portion. It's not exact, but close. I added a Just Blooms paper flower with a button center, a bit of polka dot ribbon and stamped the sentiment using the CTMH Comforting Thoughts SS.
Thanks for visiting and leaving me such nice comments!!! It always makes my day :~)
