Thinking of you

stampin up demonstrator zoe tant
Once again the sun has come to Lincolnshire and I hope it's with you too!  I've been working in my craft room to make a card for Terry, Pamela's husband.  I made this card using a selection of punches and an embossing folder from my stash.  I wanted quiet elegance and to pass on the message that we are here for him.  Inside I've used a retired US stamp set where the sentiment reads

The best thing
about the future is
that it comes only
one day at a time.

Abraham Lincoln

I'm sure right now he feels there is no future, but his friends and family will be there for him to try and bring him through his grief.
Supplies
13/4" circle punch
Curly label punch
scallop trim border punch
13/8" xl square punch
Ornate Flowers Stamp Set
Vintage Vogue Stamp Set
Colours crumb cake, chocolate chip, whisper white, real red , old olive

Back soon.

Zoe - having made a few cards like this recently, I think this is just perfect. The colours and images and the sentiment too. I'm sure that Terry will really appreciate the thoughtfullness and love shown to him. Hugs to you too xx
