Painter Meg

Hi friends! I have a fun little commission "Thinking of You" card to share with you . . .

Lili of the Valley - Anniversary Card

Hi friends! Today I have a sweet little anniversary card to share with you.

This 5.5" x 4.25" card features a Lili of the Valley (LOTV) stamp. It's been a long time since I've used any of my rubber stamps . . . and I believe LOTV no longer sells actual stamps. They've switched to digital images on Etsy. Here's kind of a side-ish view . . .

The Fight

Hello friends!! I just found out that one of my friends has been diagnosed with colon and liver cancer! She's a tough woman and always so positive  . . . so I could think of nothing better to use on her card than this incredible Mo Manning image . . . .

This 5.5" x 4.25 card features Mo Manning's "The Fight." Mo originally made this image for a friend who was battling breast cancer (and she WON the battle!) This amazing image comes with all the elements to merge . . . and it's available in two already merged versions!! These images come with perfect sentiments too! I used the "merge yourself" image. It's available HERE in Mo's online store.

Here's a close-up . . .
