The Twisted Sister for this week is Darla Ryan. It is always exciting for me when I 'know' the FS on Sunday, so I loved seeing Darlas' gallery for our challenge today, because you see a part of who they are. Darla, your gallery is touching, I love the images you use, and the wonderful way you put cards together. I chose this card to case:
The design itself is beautiful, but when I read that these cards were for Chemo Angels, it touched my heart, and I knew this was the one! My card is for Lesley (Marlygo) to celebrate her birthday today. Happy Birthday Lesley!
The main image was a stamp from my sweet friend, Traci M. (thanks sis!) It was watercolored and flocked. The flowers have dazzling diamonds.
Thanks for looking.

Oh my goodness, isn't that sweet! What a great image and he is so cute with his flowers. The bg is beautiful and I love the ribbons. But my favorite part is the contrast of texture and color between the bear and the flower. Very cool card!! You da bomb, sistah! LYMI IRL Oh and I love his little toes!

Oh Pat......I can smell the lilacs right now.....(Sniff...snniiifffffff!!!!!) Aaahhhh!!!! I'm in lilac heaven!!!!! I'm sure that I told you before, but Lilacs are very special to me since God used my lilac bush to reassure me that my son would be alright after his accident! It was in September, and after an especially difficult day at the trauma center, when we pulled in the driveway, my lilac bush had two blooms at the top!!!!!!! In September!!!!!!!!!! I knew it was a sign from God!!!!!
I can't wait to see this beautiful card IRL!!!! You have touched my heart, Sistah!!!!!!! I praise the Lord for you!!!!
