Remembering... your work of faith - TMS #445


Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!! 

Not all of the cards I make for TMS are made with a recipient in mind, but this one definitely was.  It was a thank you for a couple who planted a church not far from us.  He is now battling cancer, and they could not continue.  At their last service there, the church family wrote their appreciation in this card...  


This verse freebie from Word Art Wednesday (back in October) was perfect for their card!!  (The card is 5x7 so there was more room to sign.)  It's cut out using unbranded cross stitch ovals from Cheapo Dies.  My DP is DCWV Mariposa.  Primo flowers, Spellbinders Foliage leaves, and a few adhesive dots finished it off.     

Challenges... 
Inkspirational Challenge #156 - work ("work of faith" in sentiment)
Word Art Wednesday #326-327 - anything goes 


I also made another card using this sketch just because I had a sentiment sitting around...



This was made with a $1 clear stamp, the unbranded cross stitch ovals, the Paper Studio flowers and gems, and DCWV Spring and Summer corrugated paper that I've had forever.


Challenges...
Simply Create Too #136 - use green
Di's Digis Designs - lots of green
Addicted-to-stamps #162 - thank you
DLART Thankful Thursday #224 - green and/or thankful



Here's our wonderful sketch....




Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to go check out the creations from the TMS DT...

Beautiful paper. I really like the color scheme. It makes for a very happy card. Wonderful!

Your second card is also quite nice. Wasn't this a fun sketch to use? So quick, easy, but such LOVELY results.

I like your take on our theme at Time Out but am so sorry it is for such a sad reason however I am sure this card has bought some comfort. The gorgeous vintage feel to the card is lovely and the added flowers the perfect finishing touch. Thank you for joining Ink x

Your cards are both beautiful! I really love that corrugated paper on the 2nd card ALOT!

The 1st card has such a touching sentiment for the occasion and the 2nd card looks fabulous with that corrugated panel! Great job on both!

I love both of your cards Debbie. So sorry about the couple in your church we have a really small church and a member who is fighting cancer, I just thank God for the time we have with him. His wife does not attend church but sometimes our weekly home studies. You cracked me up about your unbranded Cheap Dies, I need to find me some of those. :)
