Mike's Chair and Cardmaking

Sweet Sarah brought my attention to this beautiful video.  It sure made me feel good.  Listen carefully to the words and enjoy......


I have been busy the last two days making cards for Card Ministry.  We didn't have time to finish some of these so I finished them at home today.
  This was fun to do.  I used my Kaleidacolor Autumn Leaves ink pad to wipe across the embossed leaves.  I embossed the background with pumpkins and vines.  I used the dewcorative Label xl for the greeting. It looks like a simple card but I needed to put each card we made through the cuttlebug three times.  Once to cut out the top note, once to emboss the top note, then once to emboss the background.
This was one of 4 different styles of cards we made for the Nursing Home Ministry.  They needed 80 cards, so we made 20 of 4 designs.

Here's another card we made for Cardministry.  This will go to the Nursing Home ministry.

This was a CASE of a card that was on those sheets we used to get from demos when we purchased a stamp set.  This is an SU set that is retired called Autumn Leaf Prints

This was to show the ladies how to layer colors to fill in the edge of their image panel.

This was a fun card to make.  I used the Amuse Snow Globe die set to make it.  What fun to cut out the snowglobe then stamp, sponge and emboss the silver star.

This was another Thanksgiving Card for the Nursing Home Ministry.  it was fun the layer the colors of the leaves with the two step stamping set, Gently Falling.

Thank goodness I had Friday off from work.  Iwas able to get the cards designed and cut and packed to go to Card Ministry.  I'm looking forward to doing some stamping for me very soon.

We had a gentleman from The City Mission come by for dinner Thursday evening.  What a wonderful time we had. He just wanted to visit us since we're faithful givers to Laura's Home.  We will get a tour of the downtown campus where they house the men's program and the kid's programs.

What an exciting thing to see all that is going on with this agency.  They do not take donations from government at any level.  They work on rehabilitating men and women to break the cycle of lifestyle they've grown up in.  It's amazing what they do.  They also help recently released people from prison get a start again.

Thanks for stopping by today.  God Bless you!
