Watching Over Jerusalem

Yes I made this with my two little hands and yes I know some of you may already have some of these.  Two years ago I made 15 of these for Christmas gifts and my family loved them.  I'm putting all three of thee on here cause I really want you to see the print and how I did it.


Sorry if the lights are on it and making a glare on it. But I really wanted you to see that was hand made and it took me 73 hours to start to finish.  I have some more if you like  this I can show them.




They don't have to be a church picture I made one of my 5 great nephews for my sister so she would have them hanging on her wall.  She said that she had them "Hanging Around" all the time this way.  They love it.

Is it a Mess??

I feel this is a mess but my husband says it's not.  I would like to know what you think.  You know I love making cards.  Then today I found a new way to put one together so tomorrow I'm going to try it.

Just let me know.  I love the Glitter on it and this time I didn't put any on the ribbon.  The Butterfly is blue with a little glitter on the tips of the wings and a little bit of glitter on the flower also.  The yellow cardstock is on form squares so it is up and off the white card.

New Glitter Cards

I'm putting on here is some cards I have been working on yesterday and today.  The first three are the same card but two are during the day light and the other was in the evening.

This picture was taken at night that is why it is a little darker. I'm trying to show the slitter on the flowers and on the paper.  This is a card I made.

First of all sorry about the shadow in the bottom of the card.  But I still hope you can see all of the glitter that is on the card.


This is the last pose of it. I love the glitter show up on the flowers plus on the card itself. The white ribbon on is how I enterlocked the flowers together and keep them in one area of the card.

On this one I love how the butterflys have glitter on them and they shine so much in the light from the lamp and from the flash.  I don't like the glitter on the ribbon and i won't do that again. Unless someone tells me how to do it differnt.

My Parents - Wedding Day

I wanted to do something special for my mother.  My father went mushroom hunting one day and never came home.  My brother and nephew went to the mountains to the area he was going to go and look.  After 15 hours of him leaving his home my nephew found him setting in his little pickup.  He had just climbed up out of the hill which was a hard pull for him to make and we feel his heart gave out on him.  He had his glasses setting in the set beside him and his head was back, his left leg was holding the pickup door open and it looks like he just went to sleep.

Our father loved the mountains he spent all of his time up there and he would get mad because they was clear cutting the are that he would love to hunt in.  our mother took his death very hard and i wanted to do something special for her  so I made this special picture and I'm going to have it mounted on a wood panel and give it to her for Christmas.  I'm about ready to order it but I want you to see it and let me know what you think.  I will post this for a week or so then I want to take it down  so she doesn't see it.  So look now.


This well be her Christmas gift from Me if you feel she will love it.  I really want to know.

New Easter Chick & Flower Card

I made two new cards today and I sure hope you like them.  If you do please let me know.


This is our New Easter Card.  I had so much fun making this card and
I will use it for Easter.

There was a lady and I'm so sorry but I forgot her name. But she made this card with this flower on it and it was so prety that I went and made one yesterday.  But I put glitter on mine and on both of these cards.  I just hope you can see them.  Please let me know what you think of them.

Walk for Autism

Our daughter who has a heart condition is asking for all of our help.  We have a grandson who has Aspsberger.  I don't think I spelled that right so forgive me.

I put a web address to her site.  She can't walk the full walk because of her heart but she love her nephew enough that she wants to try.  What I would like to do is ask you to help by giving of your heart even $5.00 would help her.  She didn't put her amount high but it is going to need all of us to help.  This goes for reseach to help her nephew and my grandson.  Anything you will do we will all be very grateful for.

Here is our grandson or her nephew.

This is him before we found out what he had.  It took them almost 30 minutes just to get this picture.  We want you to see how you are helping and hope your heart will be touched and to give even a $1.00 would help.  We would love to see her go way over her goal.  But because she can't go out and meet a lot of people we are hoping my new friends will help from TheHive.


We aren't asking for it for us we are asking for Jacob De Graw.  Our daughter calls him Jakers.
