A Washi Father's Day

Because I have 3 wonderful men in my life (my hubby, my father & my father-in-law) I usually run low on time to create full detailed cards with coloured images for all of them. So to make sure that I have enough cards for Father's Day (we recently celebrated) I put together this as a quick card to make sure each of the men in my life know how special they are!


Card ingredients include:

Stamps: Kaszazz 'Happy Father's Day'

Eddie & Charlie

A wonderful family welcomed triplet boys a month ago, much earlier than expected at only 24 weeks! This week they shared the devastating news that 2 of the boys had peacefully taken their last breath and grew wings. I was shattered when I heard their sad news so I went about making a keepsake for them. This shadow box card is what I ended up making. I know its not much but at least they will know that we are thinking of them.


Card ingredients include:

Papers: Kaiser Craft 'Pitter Patter' paper pack, white shimmer cardstock, blue glitter cardstock.
Dies: Spellbinders Grand Circle, Memory Box Precious Cloud, Maryanne Creatables Feet, Lala Land Folding Banner, DV 'A Little Mint' Alpha.
Other: Gathered Twigs Distress ink, ribbon, sailboat charm, brads, rhinestones.
