The timing is perfect, I need a card for a friend who's been challenged with the devastating effects of ALS.  We have a group of friends providing meals via "Meal Train"; tomorrow's my turn and I need a card to go with the meal.  This is what I've created using materials found in our newest bi-monthly catalogue.  I love the Craft With Heart Cardmaking subscription for the inspiration I get.  So this month, I'm switching up a couple cards from the kit and creating a unique card for Ali. We know her hope is in Christ and she will once again be able to sing, no longer in the Whatcom Chorale, but in heaven's choir. The first symptom she noticed was the loss of ability to sing. We grieve with her and her family. We miss hearing her voice, her laughter, and pray daily for God's mercy. 
Close-up to show the clear shimmer - I couldn't get it to show the flowers 
and the butterfly at the same time.  Love the butterfly, just couldn't leave him out!


Paper:  Daisy Meadows
Cardstock: White Daisy
I used the stamp set from the cardmaking subscription
"Sending Many Prayers Your Way"
Also used the heart shaker supplies found in the subscription.
Stamp set with the flowers and butterfly is Daisy Meadows Scrapbooking Stamp + Thin Cuts 
Colors for the butterfly and flowers are 
Ink Oxide: Picked Raspberry and Spiced Marmalade (out of stock- returning TBD)
 Clear shimmer brush on the butterfly and flowers.
Color inside the heart, Mint, added with a sponge dauber - with the very light circular touch. - multiple repetitions.
Inks: flowers and butterfly (Intense Black)
and Sentiment (Peacock).
