Hello everyone. It with a heavy heart I am writing this post and created this card. My Dad passed away Friday morning. Usually when I create there isn't anything else on my mind, I am focused on just the card, but tonight I was thinking of him the whole time. He always liked getting my cards and would say such nice things that made me feel so good!
I was feeling the need to make a card, I had colored this image early in the week for the Hope Stamps Eternal cupcake inspiration challenge, the colors are awesome, I paired it up with Taylor's sketch challenge, I thought they went so well together.
Thanks so much for stopping by today.
Supplies:
Stamps: Papertrey Borders & Corners Rectangle & Mega Mixed Messages, Magnolia Alota Cupcake
Paper: Papertrey White, Gina K Chocolate Kisses
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Ranger Walnut Stain, Vivid Coffee Bean
Tools/Accessories: Square Rectangle Nestabilites, Papertrey Wood Buttons, DMC Floss
