A Sister is a Precious Gift

Hi Everyone!

While I was shopping a few weeks ago I found some pretty dimensional stickers from Punch Studio in TJ Maxx.  There were packages of birthday, flower, brother, and sister stickers.  I purchased one package each of the birthday and sister stickers and two packages of the floral ones.  I didn't buy the brother ones.  I love my brother dearly, but I know he could care less about a handmade card. 

I have 3 sisters.  Jeanne and I live in Massachusetts.  Paula lives in Washington state and her twin, Pam lives in California.  I am 10 years older than the twins and have often felt more like their mother than their older sister.  Although we rarely see each other we try to keep in touch by phone and e-mail.  As soon as I saw the messages on the sister stickers I knew they'd be perfect for cards for my sisters. 

Here's a card that I created earlier today.  I apologize for the darkness of the photo.  It's cloudy and dark today and I couldn't get a more vibrant picture. 


I used a Sizzix Movers and Shakers die to cut the 4 squares on the card.  The flowers and lacy border were paper punched.  I am pleased with the feminine look the colors, pearls, and lace give the card.

Will hopefully be back tomorrow with more cards to share.

Have a nice night!
