Hi Blogging Beauties,
I hope you are having a lovely day. It is Sunday morning here...I am lucky to have the day at home, and I am still deciding what to do. I have a bit of mulching that needs doing in the garden so if I am feeling energetic I might get to that later on. I thought I might pop on and do a blog post. This card I made for Ben's Nan to give to a family member - Madeleine who turned 90 recently. I used Kaisercraft Sweet Nothing papers, some gem swirls, blossoms and a Prima butterfly. It turned out very fancy. I hope suitable for a 90 year old lady.
This second card is using the same papers and the dove is a collectable from the Sweet Nothings collection. I made this for my cousin Monica to give a lady at her work. The story is very sad. The lady's daughter, Bronte (19 I think) was killed a week or so ago in a car accident. I dont know all the details, but her boyfriend found her and then died by getting electrocuted from a power line right near the car accident. A very tragic event for this area. Monica asked for a card with angels and her name written softly on a love heart. This was my interpretation.
I hope it brings the lady some comfort, if that is possible.
My project life is going along well. I am up to November 2011 now, still have December to go...so nearly finished 2011. I am really happy with how it turned out. I might do a video of it at the end to show you.
Well, I hope you have a lovely day, whatever you might be up to.
Thanks for stopping by,
Alicia xx
