An Odd Mix Today

Good morning ! I hope all the mothers had a wonderful Mother’s Day! I had a beautiful one with a busy weekend. 
I have an odd mix for you today, A First Holy Communing card and a Softie. 



My grandson Jackson made his First Holy Communion on Saturday. I made a card very similar to this one last year. For this card I used a shimmer paper from Papertrey Ink . The stamps are all from Serendipity Stamps Bread and Chalice Cling Set

Back pocket of my first Softie I stamped  with Stitches & Swirls Stamp Set


Ok, this was my first Softie and I was not sure how to make the face. I needed to change her face ( after I was all done) I did the ears the same as the patches and I had the black part of the eyes in the center and all I saw was bloodshot wired animal. I was happy it was an easy fix. Cant wait to make more and get better at designing them.
I was dizzy all day yesterday ( I think is was sinus) I hate losing a whole day, much better now. I feel like I haven’t been online much for about 5 days. 
Thanks for the visit!


 I used Ultra Fine Gold ep4

  4. Congratulations to Jackson! We've had several little ones at Mass over the past few weeks receiving their First Holy Communion. So cute to watch their little faces. And they never know which way to go when they're finished. One little guy made a loop or two around a whole section of pews! SWEET little softie, I like the colors! So happy you had a lovely Mother's Day, but I kind of knew you would ;)

  11. What a beautiful First Communion card. I'm sure this will become a treasured memento of such a happy and sacred day for him. It is just lovely. And what a darling softie! I'll bet all of your little ones will soon be carrying these around! She makes me smile. Sorry to hear about your sinus troubles. That's what DH has been dealing with, and now a little reaction to the antibiotics for the infection. Just when he was starting to feel better. Z-Pac here we come! Hope you're feeling better today. Take good care. Bev
