Happy Holidays

Hi, I am sharing today a card for next year holiday. It was inspired by a few challenges. The beautiful flowers I recently received from my Secret Santa swap. It started off shabby chic and turned a bit to a fun card...with the snowman and candies. 

A side view.....I used gold so it is a bit hard to see...but it is shiny. 

A closer view....

Deepest Sympathy

Hi, It is with great sadness that I am making this card for a friend who husband passed away. He leaves his wife and two children. It occurred two days before Christmas. There are no words to say to decrease the pain. I pray that God gives them strength during this difficult time.  

A side view...I am still trying to think of the words I want to put inside? Any suggestions? 

A closer view....

Thanks for looking and if anyone has any words...Please put them in the comments below.
