I am so excited that I get to come to the teaparty today. The only way that I could come, is that I started this card last night and it just happened to fit the teaparty theme. This card already has a home that it is going to. It is going to a little girl who has been having a rough couple of months. I was listening to yesterday. I love the lyrics that say... when my world is shaking, heaven stands. When my heart is breaking... I never leave your hands.
I decided to draw His hands holding a heart and made it into a stained glass design. I drew the hands and heart separately and added the cross and scanned it into my computer and used microsoft publisher to finish my stained glass design. When I printed it, I went over the lines with an embossing pen and added gold ep. I colored the images with watercolors. This card is also for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge to make a card with a house or bulding that showed planning in it's design. My card just is zooming in on a window!

Yay! Look at you girlfriend! You are here! We have missed you so much.....you and your beautiful cards! Wow, this is the coolest......and you drew it? I forget how amazing your McGyver skills are! The embossing and the gold, and the stain glass look are so rich and wonderful. What a wonderful purpose for this card also! Beautiful Marilynn and welcome back, even if it was only a fluke that you were able to come!
