 The image I’m using for my card this week is called “Sunflower Kitty” and you can fine it here.
The Spellbinder I cut the Sunflower Kitty out with is called labels twenty-seven. The ribbon is one I had from Jo Ann’s.
The fibers I used for the middle of the flower, butterfly and the sunflower the Kitty is sitting on is a mixture I made up of different materials. I call it Earthy texture.
This is a Spellbinder classic butterfly die cut. I colored it with distress refills added a light glaze and some crystal glitter.
 Heartfelt creations classic sunflower die cut and stamp. I colored this with brilliance orange. added some crystal glitter.
This Cardinal is a sticker, sorry about the shine but he is really pretty.

The paper used are from my scraps. The sentiments on the outside and the inside are from The Angel Company.
These are the copic markers used to color the image. Here is the close up of the image..
 Thanks for stopping by and have a great week end. Can anyone tell me how to get these lines around the pictures to go away? I always used Windows live writer and I'm having some problems with it so I had to use blogger and I never use blogger so this is really different for me. HELP!!!!

Cards for the TROOPS!

http://operationwritehome.org/finishing-strong-bloghop/

I want to share with everyone some of the cards my friends and myself just made to send off  to OWH and I’m so glad they do not need so many cards anymore being that we do not have as many Soldiers over Seas anymore. We are going to miss making the cards. I add the card in no special order. I hope they might give you some ideas.









 Thanks for stopping by.
