Beautiful cards. I love crafting because it has always given me enjoyment. My Mom started me crafting and it was always time I could spend with her. She doesn't craft anymore because of her health and I sorely miss our time together in the craft room.

My love of crafting comes from a desire to give to others. I make hundreds of cards each year and give almost every one to someone else to use - the military, my friend from church whose personal ministry is to send encouragement cards to others, etc. I love being able to create something that someone else will use to spread some love.
Your card is great and really inspiring. Beautifully colored. Also, a big Thanks for a chance to win a wonderful prize!
Awesome work! Love the pink and blue colors used.
Your card is simply lovely. You made me want to use the layered stamping on my next project.
