MMTPT146, Thinking of You

I created this beach scene for the Teapot Tuesday challenge #MMTPT146. I can't get this twang! The music's way to slow. I like what you sang. Let the beach steal the Show.

I will be sending this card off to Anthony who is recovering from a serious accident. Anthony loves the beach and music. I hope this card will put a smile on his face.

The lighthouse image is from Stampin Up's - Coast to Coast set and the cowboy him is from Sutter Enterprises - singing cowboy.


Hugs..Pat

Smile - it's a beautiful Thing

I absolutely love this "Mother Teresa" quote. I used the quote as my focal point on my cards.
The Free 4 All challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers was to do just that - use the sentiment as the focal point. The technique challenge was to make Paper Buttons (faux buttons) which I used on both of my cards and the Clean and Simple challenge was "a Gift" - as Mother Teresa said - a smile is a gift of LOVE.

Hugs... Pat

Happy Thoughts make happy days

This card was made for Splitcoast Stampers featured stamper challenge #FS223 - Amy aka

Sentiment is from Stampin Up's "Apple Blossom" hostess set.

Made the base scene (stamped on the trees (Inkadinkado - trees), sponged on the green and the clouds. The banner sentiment was computer generated, cut out sentiment in shape of a banner.
