Pink Medalion

6th May 2012

I made this card last week, I had planned on posting it before now, but due to the passing of my beloved sister, I've really not felt like blogging.

Maggie Price was a strong, feisty, courageous, determined and stubborn woman, who fought her battle with everything she had. The Lord decided he needed another Angel at his side and called her home on Tuesday May 1st 2012. So battle done, the pain has gone, rest in eternal peace Maggie, Love you sis, always in my heart, Memories are forever.

This card is in a way like Maggie, Elegant, and beautiful.

The topper is constructed with pink stickers applied to Acetate then cut out and mounted on top of each other.

The background papers are scraps as is the ribbon. I used pearls to finish.

In Memory of Margaret Rose Price (Maggie)

Nothing will ever bring you back

this I truly know
words will never express
how I will miss you so.
I long to to hear your voice, your laugh,
and see your smile just one more time

I didn't know it would be so hard

to know you're no longer here.

But I know you'll watch over me

and know you're very near

I'll think of you forever, and the Inspiration
you have been.

Memories I treasure, from when you were

just a baby, to the wonderful woman you became.

Your soul is now set free.

I love you dearest Maggie

Until we meet again.

Rest in Eternal Peace.

Molly & Pet

30th April 2012

The image I've used for this card is from Mami Doodles, who I've just discovered has closed down!, their images were really lovely, and it's a shame they're no longer in business.

Anyway, I made a card almost identical to this one sometime last year, and loved it so much I've re-created it today.

I use a square white base card, a royal blue leather grain with a border punched edge, and a really bright pink to lift the whole thing and tie in with the copic colours I've used to colour Molly and her pet pussy.
I used Spellbinder scalloped long rectangles to cut the backing and embossed it with Cuttlebugs Swiss dots. a plain light blue backing for Molly who I fussy cut out after colouring her.
The circle is another two Spellbinder dies, the plain one I stamped first then cut, and flat mounted onto the light blue scallop circle. this was mounted over the ribbon tails of the two plastic balloon embellishments, oh and I ran a 1cm wide pink ribbon across the pink and blue backing before mounting Molly and the sentiment.
Molly is finished with some Stampin Up pearls.

Happy Crafting,

Hugs.
