Hello , Happy New Year ! I'm going to be working on my thank you cards for Christmas gifts we received . This is what I came up with . Green is my favorite color ... So it seemed fitting .

Just a note to brighten your day

Hello . Had to make a bright colored card , gloomy weather here ... Ice storm . I tried my hand at the PTI MIM # 235 adding color to stamped images , I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out since I fused with it so much . Maybe I should have chosen a small image to color ?  Added some shimmer to the background for interest . Thanks for visiting .

Wise men still seek him

Hello , a late night posting for me . My boys had chess practice tonight , so I didn't get a chance to create as early as I'd have liked to. This card didn't photograph as well as I would have liked it to . I stamped the image in versamark and then dusted on some colored pearl ex . It really is really colorful . I'm submitting it for Virginia's view # 20 glitter and for SSS Monday challenge " gentlemen". Thanks for stopping by . 

All is calm

Finally finishing my own Christmas cards , I've been working all week on cards a friends asked me to make . Hubby hasn't taken the photo that we send with the cards yet , so still not ready to mail .
