pink roses




Here's my entry for the sketch challenge over at Jac Inks. I've made a pretty card for a friend who's becaome a grandma this week.

Colour Combo: Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White.

Everything this week is overshadowed by the grief and sadness of the earthquake in Christchuurch. Everyone I know is safe- but many aren't. I have friends waiting to hear about missing loved ones, if you are able to donate please donate to the New Zealand Red Cross- please follow this link The Britsh Red Cross has also sent up an appeal.

We are a small country and there are very few people who don't know someone affected in some way to this tragedy. There is also though a feeling of being amazed by how so many countries are coming to Christchurchs aid- the rescurers are doing an amazing job- in very difficult and dangerous conditions. Please continue to send your Thoughts and Prayers to the people in Christchurch.

You've made a lovely card for a wonderful occasion -that of becoming a grandparent. Your interpretation of the sketch is beautifully portrayed and the use of DSP, flowers and stamping is delightful. Thanks so much for entering jac-inks challenge # 2. My thoughts and best wishes are with all New Zealanders at this time.

Another gorgeous card Debi.

Yes, the Christchurch earthquake has been a horrible nightmare for so many people and has affected us all, in one way or another.

My thoughts are with you Debi and everyone directly and indirectly affected by the earthquake. Such a tragedy for so, so many.

Your card is so pretty with the pinks and blossoms and the green accent adds just the right amount of contrast. Great to see you on Jac-Inks.
