True Friend - Quick Card

Hello Friends,


Today is my day to post on "The Bug Bytes".  Pam is such a sweetie and has gathered a wonderful group of women together for her design team.  The talent is abundant and so varied in all the art techniques.  I just love popping in to see what wonderful creation is on display.

I put together a humble little card for a friend.  She is always there with a shoulder for me.  My shoulders have been a little weak the past few weeks, so her strength is so very appreciated. 




I have really started enjoying The Twinery twine.  Just love it!

Recipe:
Echo Park - Borders, Journal Card and Solid.
The Twinery - Blossom
Fiskar - True Friend stamp
Colorbox - Cateye - Olive (i think)

Thanks you so much for taking the time to check out my posting today.  I hope you got a 'smile' out of something you saw or got some inspiration to go do something crafty.

Because of the Brave - Blog Hop

Hello Friends,

Welcome to the "Because of the Brave" Blog Hop
If you have landed here from Pam, you are on the right track.
If you are just stopping by today, get a cup of coffee/tea or drink of choice and join this lovely group of ladies for an inspirational hop.  Start with Nicolette

Here is a little card I put together. I think of my Grandfather during this time of year and if he was still here, I know he would be grinning ear to ear when he received this card from me.



God Bless to all that give of themselves for the betterment of others.

Recipe:
My Mind's Eye - American Made & Die Cut accessory sheet
The Twinery - Denim

I used the piercing tool by We R Memory Keepers for the first time.  I know it is made for floss, but I just love twine and it gave more 'bulk' to the card.

Hop on over to Patti now, I am sure she has something wonderful in store for you.
