Morning and a Happy New Year to you all and I have two DT card today the first one is for the CAS challenge(chosen by me) at Pearly Sparkles and I had to make a sympathy card for a sudden death of someone who you thought would go on forever. She lived in the next street but was one of the old school neighbours who always sat on her front step watching all the kids and telling off those who needed it right from when ours were all young and was always there when anyone needed taking to school.Still sat there in her wheelchair,she was one of those people who everyone knew!Poppies are a Memory Box die and the butterfly I found already stamped and cut out so just coloured with promarkers.I embossed lines on the white background strip using my score board.
Any challenges with digi image prizes I amjust playing for fun/and support as no printer!
