HE HAS RISEN HALLELULIAH!

A most Happy and Blessed Easter to you and your families!  I had some fun with BRUSHO to make the background for this first card. And then I used the SU! Hold onto Hope stamp set and coordinating framelits to complete the card.  The second card is a card of hope and I created some 3 dimensional flowers to go with it.

 This is the stamp set and coordinating framelits.  Buy the bundle and save 10%.

HEARTFELT CREATIONS COFFEE MUG CARD

I am ever grateful to my friend MJ for a Starbucks Mug. It's the best I ever got and it keeps my Starbucks delight warm or piping hot for 4 to 8 hours.  I also get a complimentary Starbucks grande every single day in January.  To thank her I sent this handcrafted card using Heartfelt Creations coffee stamp set and coordinating framelits.  I also sent a similar card to my mother as she loves coffee like I do - maybe not Starbucks, probably good 'ol Maxwell House. What kind of coffee or tea do you drink?

I really loved stamping and die cutting this card, but even more than that I loved watercoloring the card and adding crystal effects to highlight the ornate details.  Makes me enjoy my coffee all the more today.
