Birthday card for my FIL, who is the best! Pop loves that time on the boat and has had his two sons, and every one of his grandkids and great-grands on it too. To fish with Pop is to learn to appreciate patience. Mo's image was colored with copics and the sky was made by sponging bashful blue over a torn paper towel.
This week I was so happy to see one of my all-time favorite Stampers honored by QFTD. Judy... Her gallery makes you stop- every time! She is blessed with talent, and has the most kind and encouraging heart. Every week I have at least one of her creations added to my favs. To case Judy is quite another thing! Although inspiring, it is totally intimidating to say the least! However, I was fortunate enough to hold this precious card in my own hands when my grandson Jonathan was born last January. Jamie & I were so touched by Judy's work, and the details that make it such a stand out.
Judy, thank you so much for pouring out your talent to paper and sharing with us. I love to study your work, and also to see your heart on paper. Hope your week is the very best. Hugs.....
Thanks for looking!
