Annie's Friday Smiles + Nicecrane Birds and Blossoms


Hullo there everyone .. another Friday here in Oz is drawing rapidly to close, so better do my Friday post to link up with Annie's Friday Smiles.. and the snippetty playground too.
Okay these are borrowed again!!! firstly some from Pinterest :D

The funny thing was chatting to my sister just today and she was about to tell me about something then went looking for it, and she said, "oh no! cant find it now, I have just tidied up this morning!"
Quite frankly, not sure what would do if found it on my car??  are foxes harmless??
Thought this clever on Facebook, then someone funny added this one below on the Comma Cat post :D

Just want to share a card I have just made for a friend who is has cancer and fighting a very hard battle .. love this verse... "in the fear of the LORD is strong confidence, and His children shall find a place of refuge".. ah a Refuge is time of storm ~ we all need that! I truly would not have made this far through life if the LORD had not been my Strength and Stay through each and every day!
Had real fun making this card I was given ages ago this set by Ignacio of Nicecrane designs cant find the link cos the site is down for maintenance but it called Birds and Blossoms set so check it out when they are back online. I added a Bible verse from Word Art Wednesday on it. They are meant to be used for calling cards etc but I tried three with a Bible verse inserted in a Word text box - loved how it worked! :D I spritzed glimmer mist on the image, the backing card is made with the CB Houndstooth embossing folder inked up in Memento Chocolate before embossing, distressed afterwards with sanding blocks - looks like felt. :D Added two brads, snippet of chocolate ribbon at side.
 .. hope it brought some smiles to your face!
Happy Smiles day everyone!! 
and may God richly bless your day wherever you may,

  1. You did indeed make me smile, and I love that verse. I also have a friend fighting the terrible cancer battle. She is a wonderful Christian woman. I'll have to remind her of this verse.
    Blessings,

  2. I smiled several times at those cute things you found on the internet. I loved the one about editing your face. I resemble that remark, especially when I'm trying to brush all the winter fur out of Bleubeard!

    That's a beautiful card, too. I hope your friend gets better. Have a super weekend.
