This card is for a wonderful gentleman that visits my Dad. Yesterday he had surgery to insert a pace maker. He and his wife are missionaries. One afternoon my Dad was sitting outside in his wheel chair on the front porch and they stopped and spoke to him. It's been 5 years since then and they have both become a blessing in my Dad's life. As it was a card for a man, my mojo is always a bit slower! So I looked through my pictures of card layouts and this one caught my eye - but I tweaked it a bit. I had recently bought a paper stack by DCWV called "Linen Closet" that fit the bill perfectly. Such nice soft hues of color. I raised the two front layers with pop-dots, added a few dew drops and a bit of ribbon. The stamp was from Micheal's dollar bin (you know how much I love a bargain!)
What a beautiful and soft card! The colours of your papers are so soft and perfect for your dads friend! Beautifully done.
