Missing You in So Many Ways

I must be healing.


I was able to make a card for my friend to send her deployed husband...



without crying my eyes out.



Thank You Jesus!




It's really a blessing, when I don't get emotional about deployed soldiers...


so much so that I CAN'T DO ANYTHING for them.


It's about time I made cards for my friends!





I stamped the background with my largest clear acrylic block.


That's right, no stamp, just the block.  One spritz of water after inking up, and you have a handmade background.







Thanks for peeking in today. ;)

Love the camouflaged papers; so perfect for the intended recipient. Great idea for background stamping too!
