This is the first time I'm able to stamp in several weeks - and I'm sooooo glad to be back!!
(Have been without vision in my left eye, and reduced vision in my right... Had cataract surgery on my left eye this week and will have it on the right next week. Good news is I'll no longer need corrective lenses, except maybe for very detailed stamping/coloring.)
This card is for today's featured stamper - Krischir AKA Kris Chirhart - what a fabulous gallery to browse!!
Kris - I love all your cards, your color combos really got my attention as did your wonderful layouts and great textures! I enjoyed browsing your gallery - so many cards I'd love to CASE... so little time!
I chose Kris's truly beautiful CAS {Thank You Card} - It's an FS challenge card - the original was designed by Lynette - her beauty is here {Thank You Card}
Changes were with size, images, added punched floral grouping and layers. This card is going to my Aunt Maureen who lost her husband (our Uncle) or nearly 50 years. He will be missed by so many.
Thanks everyone for looking - it's good to be back!

Welcome back! You have lost none of your touch in your absence. This is really stunning and I hope your Aunt Maureen feels all the love you put into this. You really have a way with color, that's for sure. I'm so glad you have a vision problem that can be corrected and I wish you well in getting your second eye done. Take care.
