Danielle made a beautiful card and MIM for this week!
My corner cluster of flowers are a little heavier than I would have liked. I stamped on watercolor paper and used my watercolor pen to blend many of the stamped images.
I wanted to show you there is two cards, I thought maybe the first one I made was a bit dark so I made the second one a little lighter. Not sure why I always seem to add a bit of glitter, I guess it makes me happy to see it sparkle.
Hello and thank you for all your sweet comments and prayers again! You are the BEST!!!
We received an early morning phone call, it was Phil and he sounded good as new. He is very grateful and feels so unworthy of all the love and prayers and the fact that he survived ! He breaks down in grateful tears often. He is going home today!!!! We still can’t believe it and the doctors are shocked as well.
I am truly sorry for those of you that this may be hard, because you prayed and did not get your miracle. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers as well.
All Papertrey Ink stamps and dies
Both of your cards are so pretty--I can't pick a favorite. I can tell what was on your mind when you chose your sentiment.
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful. You did great with this technique.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. Truly lovely work.
ReplyDeleteBoth beautiful as always. I thought of Stitches & Swirls for this technique also. Thank you for your very kind comment on my card. So glad that your brother in law is doing so well. God has truly performed a miracle.
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty, pretty!

Two beautiful card, Marybeth!
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear the news that your BIL is doing so well! As for miracles not realized, I am a firm believer the God has his master plan and we have to accept who he chooses to take Home and when.
Love, hugs and prayers, dear friend.
Beautiful cards. So glad Phil is recovering.
ReplyDeleteThese are both SO PRETTY Marybeth and I like your bit of sparkle too! But the best thing about your post today is to read that dear Phil is going HOME!!!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are sweet, as always! I love the touch of sparkle. They're like sugared flowers. Even more so, I'm so happy for you and your family for your miracle to answered prayers. God is amazingly good.

ReplyDeleteYour card is gorgeous! I love the glittery sparkle and the watercolor look of your flowers. I attempted this yesterday, but will have to try again. Marybeth, you are so caring to think about those who may not have had prayers answered the way they wanted. I'm so thankful for your BIL's recovery!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth...this is so beautiful and it really conveys the way you feel in your heart, so much love and caring. You are so sweet, kind and thoughtful...just the BEST!
ReplyDeleteGiving thanks to God for your bil's recovery and that he's probably home by now! Will continue to pray for his recovery. These are such "Marybeth" cards! Filled with love and made beautifully. The glitter is perfect; I'm happy you used it here. Just wonderful. Have a great week. Bev

ReplyDeleteI love your cards, and especially love the sentiment... I have a truly grateful heart, Marybeth and feel blessed just knowing that my prayers are heard, if not always answered.... does that make sense? ...
