It is a Thank You to all of you!!! There is just no way I can express my Thanks to each of you that have been so wonderful the past month and a half - all the cards, well wishes, prayers and donations - - It took me three days to make this card ( have to work in short periods.. ) so if I were to make a thank you card for each of you and send them out it would take me years. I just hope you all understand how much your support has meant to me -
This is the Donkey that Tina Wenke made for me for Stampavie - Now please don't expand and look to close at my Copic Coloring.. LOL as those flowers were REALLY TINY with no depth perception!! But after 4 prints and tries I finally got one that satisfied me as my first one eyed card. I need lots of practice - but oh my it felt so good to color!! And then I dusted off my desk and sewing machine and attached it to a card!
Here are some details of supplies - The papers are The Paper Studio "Sweet Pea" stack, with Martha Border Punch, Sewing, adhesive pearls in the corner, mulberry roses, Martha frond leaf punches and pearl pins. "My" donkey is cut out with a Nestie and then edged with a Copic Marker for a mat look. The sentiment is a Sizzix Card Maker Thank You die punch.
Thank you Tina for such an adorable Donkey - I adore her! She will always be very special to me!
I have also colored two more donkeys... The Whimsy Stamps lovely Artists Melissa Jenkins and Ann Vento's Adorable Stuffed Donkey and Karen's Doodles wonderfully fun Donkey so you will be seeing two more cards real soon!! :0)
Again.. Thank You all for all the wonderful Support! It means the world to me!!
Hugs and-

Oh what an adorable card you made. I love the stitching and the punches and the flowers and your coloring. Gosh, I expected a simple card. Not from you! That would have taken me three days too and I have both eyes! Hey, no one expects a personalized thank you. You just need to do what you can do and rest. We all want to see you back up to speed as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteOh it is just fantastic that you're back making cards again sweetie. And wow, this is just fab - so much detail as always .... the girl's still got it - in bucket loads!!! xx
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great card. So pleased that you can craft again, and just because each card takes a while, it still feels good when you complete something that you're happy with. Trust me, I know!!
