A little coloring

IMG_0384

Hello Friends, How are you? I finally had an hour to sit down and color something. These sweet sweet images from Clearly Besotted have been sitting on my desk calling my name. Once you stamp them you love them even more. This particular set is called, “Cute As A Bug”

IMG_0383

The background was created with this stencil and some Simon Says Stamp ink here. Normally a bee’s nest doesn’t hang from a flower but, I wanted to go for something different.

Clearly Bescotted is having a clearance sale with 50% off! Check it out here.

On another note…. Jackie’s daughter is overwhelmed from your kindness and enjoying each and every one of the beautiful cards that’s she’s receiving.  She’s feeling the love that comes from them and it’s warming her heart. So a huge thanks to you all for the love, cards and prayers. If you are reading this thinking…. what on earth is Kathy talking about you can read this post.

Have a great weekend! Hugs, Kathy

    Such a beautiful card! Love your coloring Kathy! I think I missed the post about Jackie.. So sorry to hear about that! It’s a very brave of you to post about your story. I’m very glad that things worked better for you. I’m from India and my hometown is the southern most part of the mainland of India. In my town, there a lot of cancer patients and it’s very sad that the number of survivor is very less! Many people I know had cancer, some survived while some were not lucky enough. It’s sad! It’s good to hear story like yours!!

    What a great heart you have. I have never met you and most likely never will in person but I feel like you are a very kind and generous person.
    Which in these days and times are far and few between.
    How gracious of you to recruit people to send some happy thought cards to someone you care about. I read this post first and then back tracked to the 11th.
    When I read the part about it spreading to her liver I felt a crush in my gut.
    I had a friend in similiar situation and sadly when it gets to liver it’s just about done all the damage. At least in 2 cases that I sm aware of.
    Anyway your awesome.
    Thank you and have a great day

      Awww gosh MaryKay thanks soooo much for your sweet and loving comments. I had a cousin and her name was MaryKay too. I think anyone with that name must be a special person on this planet. Thanks for making my day. 🙂
