January Birthday

The card I am showing you today is a card I made for my Sister-in-love, Julie.  I was a couple of weeks late getting it to her and I had to wait to post it to make sure she didn't see it on-line before she received it.  The wait is over.  Here is her card:

This is another card I cased by Andrea Ewen.  You can find her card HERE  

That's it for me today.  I have another card made which I hope to share with you tomorrow.

Blessings and thanks for sticking with me!

Butterly Birthday

I was attempting to make a belated birthday card for my Sister-in-love, Julie.  I wasn't happy with the way it turned out, so, Julie.... this is not yours, lol!  Here is my card:

I was attempting to case a card from Ann Sheffer, aka Pickled Paper Designs  Here is a scanned copy of her card.  I couldn't find it on her blog and I searched page after page after page.  Sorry about the quality.
Now, you can see why I wasn't happy with mine, wah, wah, wah.  :)  I'll have to make a fresh start tomorrow on something new.  Sorry, Julie.  You're card us going to be a bit more late.

Blessings,
Terri

This Christmas Past

I know Christmas has come and gone, but I didn't get a chance to post the pictures of my cards.  I hope you don't mind if I do it now.  I only made two different designs.  Here is the first:

This is the card I made for my great nieces and nephews.  This is the card I made for the adults:


I made this card using a tutorial by Sandy MacIver.  You can find it HERE
That's it for me today.  Have a great weekend.

Blessings,
Terri

Happy New Year

Happy, happy new year to each and every one of you.  I am looking forward to seeing what God has in store for me this year.  I hope you are too!  I didn't make any new year resolutions.  If I had, it would have been to try and make more cards for posting.  We will see. Keep your fingers crossed! I hate making resolutions and not keeping them.

Since I've been so involved at Micah Ministries, it has been hard to keep up with my card making.  I'll try to get and stay organized this year.  Again... we'll see :)

Many blessings to you all,
Terri
