Rainbow Colors

April 8, 2015

For the flowers, since I don’t have a variety of ephemera colors I decided to cut some digital flowers out with the Silhouette Portrait, then color them/color over them. I also don’t have a lot of stencils since I’m new to stenciling I had the Silhouette also cut the words and the triangle shapes on regular paper to use at stencils.

The triangle shapes stencil by Wilna Furstenberg, flowers by Sweet Caroline Studio, Mommyish, and Sugarplum Paperie, die cut tree branch was cut out from a digital element by Sarahh Graphics, wood veneer by Heidi Swapp, paper by Amy Tangerine, and paint is Reeves.

Photos From Good Friday

Went hiking last Friday. We got up just before sunrise and while on the road, the sun came up.

I’m in the black coat, my daughter is in the blue, and my brother’s girlfriend is in the white. It was beautiful how the clouds covered the tips of the mountains.

Husband got to carry the cross. It was a very hard hike since it was all uphill. My youngest daughter came along too but only walked a little then got into the car that was aiding us. We made it to Mother Cabrini’s shrine in about 2.5 hours. It was a 6 mile hike but in order to get to the shrine, there is maybe another 1 mile up some stairs.

The group photo.
