Thankful For You


Hello there friends. I didn't get a card up yesterday like I said and thought I would.  Too many errands to do which is normal on the day I have the car.

I did get a chance to get one together  today which I will be posting over on  the Jennifer McGuire blog. She is doing a Share Handmade Kindness challenge and this is week one: Friends and Family and I'm also sharing it over at Word Art Wednesday.

This was really a timely post for me. This past Tuesday at Bible Study, the ladies I got share with in our prayer time, were talking about how important it was to thank others and show it by "snail mail". We are all so accustomed to texting or emails, but a nice hand written note or card would be so special.  That set a little thought into action. I make cards so I decided to make each of them (3ladies) a card for them to send to a special friend or family member. 

Why not stop by Jennifer's and the Word Art Wednesday blogs to receive some great inspiration and perhaps win some prizes!

Have a wonderful and blessed weekend and I hope you can do something CRAFTY!

Crafty Hugs,
Bernie Bee

Practice Hospitality

 

I just completed this card this morning. Monday seemed to just get away from me. Has that ever happened to you? You have a project and post planned, then the day slips away and it's the last thing you think of doing. 


I will be linking this over on Viva La Verve and Word Art Wednesday today. I so enjoy both blogs and the challenges they present every week. I hope you take the time to stop by and see what they are up to.

I'm off to my Woman's Bible Study, some shopping, then getting ready to host our new Couples Home Group with my husband this evening.

Make this a great Tuesday and do something CRAFTY my friends!

Hugs,
Bernadette

My Help

This is my VLVSEPT2014 week 2 card and I will be linking it over on Word Art Wednesday, also. I did have some other paper in mind, but settled on this pretty floral in the All Abloom paper stack.  The lighting is a little off since I took it with the early morning sun. It seems it's still trial and error for me in taking photos of my cards. {smile}

I  will be making this short today.  I have a Woman's Bible Study this morning and a Card Class with some ladies from the park where I live. I'm hoping to get in a pedicure, but don't know if that will happen today. I seem to put that off. I'd rather spend that hour or so in my Studio, although I do enjoy getting them.

I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday and do something CRAFTY my friends.

*Stamp set - Verve Scripture Medley 2 , which I just love. I have used this set of uplifting scriptures on at least 5 cards, and there are still 7 left!

I forgot to mention that I used one of my favorite papers, Shimmery White #101910. I love the subtle little shimmer it has to it and the weight of the card paper.(stamped sentiment and flower)

Do Not Give Up



Good Morning! I can't believe the weekend is already upon us. The days just have flown by. I did get a few hours to play yesterday. Well, maybe more then a few. (smile)
I was able play and get familiar with some new techniques and with some new products. I'm really trying to stretch my creativity. Hopefully, I'll be sharing some "new" things in the future.

Today's card is being posted in two challenges, DS no.167 and Word Art Wednesday. 



I rounded all the corners of my card, but I'm not that happy with it. I really feel sticking to Jen's sketch would have been the better way to go. Oh well, create and learn.

Speaking of the rounded corner. I have found that when working with the Punch Corner by Project Life,  turning the punch upside down and centering it worked better for me. I never was able to get a clean rounded corner by using the guide.

Although the color can't be seen in this photo, the Pistachio Pudding used for the leaves and center of the flower was picked up out of the small dots paper. I hesitated to use it, but a darker green was just not working.


That's about it for today.  Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend and are able to do something CRAFTY my friends!
Hugs, Bernadette

Joy

 Today is another double challenge card using the MOJO#359 sketch of the week and a scriptural inspiration stamp for Word Art Wednesday.






I used Lost Lagoon,which I love, paired with Daffodil Delight, and stamped the sentiment and flowers with the Lost Lagoon ink. Lost Lagoon is one of my favorite new blues and I always seem to gravitate towards using it.

Coloring the pearls on this card was something I hadn't tried before. Using the Daffodil Delight Blendability Marker to coordinate them was so easy. I certainly will be doing that more often.

Have a great weekend and stay CRAFTY my friends!
Hugs, Bernadette
