Tuesday Morning Sketch #174

My "baby" is 11 yrs old today!!   I cannot believe it!  My children are all growing up too quickly!!   Be thankful for your children even on the days when they make you want to list them on eBay!!   :-)

Time for another sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches #174...

Our sponsor this week is DRS Designs.  They were wonderful and allowed the DT to choose stamps to use for this challenge!!  Thank you so much!! 

My husband is a pastor so I selected 2 stamps that I know will get much use... Calla Lily Sympathy Frame and  Counting the Years Greeting for weddings!!   I made 2 cards since I didn't think those 2 stamps would combine very well!

Here's my sympathy card...

My wedding or anniversary card...



Be sure to check out my amazing fellow designers' creations for inspiration then play along for your chance to win!!

Love your cards! I can see why these two sets did't compliment each other! Love the calla lillies! and such a beautiful embossing folder!
Do enjoy each day with your children....try to find one thing each day that makes you thankful for them. So even on the toughest days, you will know they were meant to be yours!

Two beautiful cards Debbie, love them both but slightly partial to the wedding card mainly because I love red and white together! Happy Birthday to your son!

Those calla lilies are so gorgeous & perfect for a sympathy card, and I love the embossing on your wedding card! I would totally try to make those two work together, but then I do have a weird sense of humour ;)

You are an over achiever, Debbie! (Please don't make the rest of us look bad!) Beautifully done cards...both very classy!

For a minute there I thought the 2nd picture was the inside of the 1st....makes sense? Of course not! So I grabbed my glasses and read the text. They're both gorgeous, Debbie! Very elegant.

Happy Birthday to your son! I love both your cards. The bow added to the bottom of the flowers on the first one is such a nice touch, and the embossing on the second one is gorgeous!
