Card #28 for 2024

Hello Crafting Friends.

I'm trying to get back into the swing of stamping,

just don't seem to have that spark, but I will 

keep trying, LORD willing it will all come back.

I made this card for my son.  I wanted something

fun and cheerful to show him how proud I am 

of the choices he is making in life.  He will

be celebrating a One year anniversary and I wanted

to let him know I'm celebrating with him. 

I will enter this card in the challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

The stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Watercolor shapes, happy & heartfelt,

one wild ride, brightest beauty.

Lawn Fawn:  Sweet Smiles

I suppose I could of used the bokeh technique, but

instead I decided to do a little masking and stamping to 

make the background look like gumballs of all sizes. The 

glitter washi tape on the sides, just gives the extra sparkle.

I made a few nugget boxes for the kids for Easter. 

The DSP was a bit flimsy so I glued it down on 

heavier card stock to make the boxes more sturdy.  

My daughter sent me the "Peanuts" message below.

We always thought our beloved HP had the attitude of 

snoopy.  So this is absolutely perfect what Charlie

Brown is writing, words just can't say how lonesome 

we are without our pal.  

I made little paw coaster for my etsy shop,

and decided to name it Heavenly Paws in honor 

of our HP (Hunter)  I will see how well it

goes over, right now I have a coaster with a 

little succulent planter.  I might just be making a group 

of coasters to sell as well.  You can check out the

first item here at my etsy shop. 

The verse I chose for this card is:

Colossians 3:23-24KJV

And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord,

and not unto men; knowing that of the Lord ye shall

receive the reward of the inheritance; for ye 

serve the Lord Christ.

Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
