warmest birthday

 
Made this card for a co worker. I used all SU supplies. Water color paper and the aqua brush. I wish I was more of an artist. Not sure of the shadowing. Oh well, I tried. Today  the anniversary of my fathers death. He died 11 years ago. Some days it seems like yesterday and other days it seems longer. The kids are coming over later for spaghetti and meatballs. Jenna bought a new IPOD touch. So she said I could have her old one. I'm not sure what they do, but I told her sure I would take it. Hope it's easy to figure out. I can finally post my cards without too much of a problem. Hope everyone is enjoying there day, thanks for stopping by.

Frosted Candy Canes

Made this card for the free for all challenge over at scs. the challenge was to use glitter. I used SU 's red glitter paper and dazzling diamonds on these candy canes. They are from the set Scentsational Season. Hope eveyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I just came home from spending the last 4 hours in the e r. Hubby has been vomiting all day and couldn't keep any fluids in his stomach. So we made the trip, they gave him an iv, and also gave him some nausea medicine. Hopefully he will be able to sleep and feel like his old self in the morning. I was thinking it was something he ate from Thanksgiving, but no one else sick. Nothing worse than a sick man.
