Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Simon's Wednesday Challenge is an 'anything goes' challenge that is asking for Penny Black this week if we have some... do I?!


I picked up a few in January.  This one's a lovely 'cabbage rose' design called Christmas Blush... but I didn't make a Christmas card today.  A friend asked if I would send a card to her friend who is battling breast cancer and might appreciate a card from me.  Prayers will of course be enclosed.


It's gone from sunny days back to cloudy and cold - here's a 
bit brighter look at my card:


If your Friday evening dance card hasn't been completely booked, my friend Therese is the guest designer at Craft Roulette this evening.  HERE is a link if you can make it!  I know she will be so happy to have you join the fun!

What a perfect time to bring out your Penny Black stamps--if you have them (wink!) I love that rose and it's so beautifully watercolored and will surely cheer up anyone.

This is so beautiful, Michele. I love the subtle background. A handmade card is a statement of caring. A perfect thing to do for aomeone who is dealing with serious illness.

You have mastered watercoloring with re-inkers, Michele! This is a beautiful way to send prayers for healing!

Another PB beauty, Michele. Your watercoloring is wonderful. Looks like the re-inkers are now your friend. ;)
