Late again, but I had to honor Bev Barton- who is one of the most encouraging stampers around this place! Bev, I chose your Basket for You card. I loved the cuttled bg and the sweet image. Completely gorgeous! I used to have that same stamp, and gave it away! Ugh! I was blessed to receive this scripture stamp from my sweet friend Michelle (Shellapoo) just yesterday, and it was perfect for this card I started last week! Hope you had a wonderful week Bev, you certainly deserve it! Thanks for all you share in this place! Hugs....

Why on earth have you managed to get behind?!? No little secrets being hidden from the adoring masses while you created amazing cards for the DD! And sick on top if it! I'm in awe. And your card for Bev is wonderful. Love that awesome red rose. You do punch those little leaves so well!

What a gorgeous creation Pat! Not that I am surprised...I am always in awe over your work in the galleries! You are a very talented stamper...
you know how you can look at a card and if you've been around here for a while (like I have), sometimes you can guess who made it? I've been getting that a lot lately...guess we all have our own style and yours is most definitely distinctive! Thanks for sharing your beautiful card!

Pat, this is incredibly beautiful - the brilliance of the red rose against the textured bg with just a touch of pearls and sheer ribbon make a fabulous frame for this amazing verse - how powerful it is, what a lovely gift to get this stamp! Whoever receives this would surely be encouraged by the sheer beauty of it and the Word of God.

A fabulous tribute to such a sweet lady - that is our Bev - "late" is not a word that exists in our stampers vocabulary, Sis - and I know how thrilled Bev is going to be to see that you've "arrived" with this delightful card - a signature beauty with the CB background and that gorgeous Rose framing your touching verse. Blessings to Michellle for providing you with a replacement of the one you gave away! LYMI

Pat, I am awed by what a beautiful card you have created!! I love the touch of pearls.....always an elegant embellishment in my book and the colors you chose to design with...just show what a beautiful look can be achieved with red and white. I have to tell you that I spotted your fern punch detail, too. Love that. (My friends kid me cuz I paid "top dollar" on ebay to get that punch. One of those moments where I had to have it now!!) So, I am truly inspired by how you used it...I need to get my money's worth out of it. LOL. Thanks for creating a beautiful card for my reign as Queen. I appreciate that very much.
