Packaged Cards

I made these cards and then contacted Frog and Toad which is a consignment shop. Sent images and all but he replied the cards are in deed beautiful but not the style they carry.

I made this to put on the inside of each of the cards. Hope it is worded nicely since I am not good at grammer :)

I have more than one picture of a same card trying to show different angles of them, thou I need to work on the reflection of lighting.

Card Making

Ok, I have been making cards lately. One when I want to thank somebody, give a birthday wish, or whatever the occasion may be, I make a card. A card of encouragement, to a bus driver in the city , to say Proud of you, missing you, you are one of a kind, or whatever the case may be. There is usually a personal story that inspires each I make.

Happy New Year 2013

I was really thinking of my friends in Tennessee when I made this one

I love having pictures of my friend and I so I thought of making a card that somebody else could do that too

It was a pretty nice day out and I love butterflies

This one I made thinking how getting a card from somebody makes me smile and it does others too

Moms and Dads, teachers in schools, regardless where, it is always nice to thank them for the accomplishment they help impact on you

This one was one similar to another one, that what we do can make a difference in another 's day 

We all like to know when somebody is proud of us

This one has a couple layers. The outside basically has the outline of a heart and a key, to get inside somebodies heart you have to know how to use the key, two what is always on the outside is not what is inside. (that is written on the top layer) once you get inside you can tell them how amazing they are

This one I made when some of my friends in Tennessee were traveling back home from various of places, when I think of one coming home I don't think of the house, I think of who as a person are they being welcomed home to, since a house is not the home, but we make a home

This card was inspired by the kindness of a bus driver, one day while I was heading to the bus stop, I was a little late, he stopped and let me on, then I went to use the pass I had and it was expired, sooo I went to sit down to get my money to pay as I get off the bus but instead the bus driver hands me a pass to get back home on. I call that a Touch of God. I was soo thankful.

The whole bus system is all new to me, moving from Tennessee after 16 plus years to here in Providence has been quite the experince.

What A Jungle

I went to Rhode Island to visit daughter, son, and grandsons. In which one was still in her womb. But graciously God let the grandson who was in the womb be born while I was visiting. So while I was there taking care of my olest grandson I got the privilege of painting on his room wall. Had lots of fun. Coconut trees with his hand prints as grass. So fun.
I did not get everything done I wanted to get done thou. Maybe next time. :)

 
 
 

There are some jungle animal pictures that are to be hung up in there too. I had lots of fun staining, and making the frames. I have to find them first before I put them here.... til later. I found them...

Fingerprint And Talk Bubbles

I was trying to show them how to make pictures from their fingerprints but as you can see some were not, which still turned out very cute and they had a good time with this.
