My Internet has been down most of yesterday and now most of today!!!… how sad is that!!!…. I had to admit but it gave me lots of extra time… I think it means I need to set aside “internet time”… and I could get more done!!… anyway while I had “all this time”… I decided to make a card inspired by a card by Mary Hamer… I saw her card a long time ago… and have wanted to be that brave… today I had time to be that brave… if she sees my card I sure hope that I have done her proud!!… besides the flowers the leaves the sun and grass… its all one cut from A Childs Year… cut out in 6 different papers and cut apart and pieced together. Thank you so much for looking… I have misses everybody.. Thank you so much for looking!

My husband took me to eat at Cracker Barrel yesterday and I say this beautiful card with a cross and flowers and hearts on it… I just love the feel of it so I came home to make me a version of it…. And when I finished laying out the cross, the heart and the flowers I knew this card needed an angel… God’s Little Angel…. And I imagined that the angel felt great joy when it laid his eyes on the cross… the card just filled my heart with joy!!… I hope it fills your heart too…this also ended up being a good first card to assemble on video because it is fairly easy… there is a separate video for the angel… it is just below this post or you will find a link to it on the right of my blog entitled Assembling God’s Little Angel…. I hope that my voice and my flow of instructions gets much smoother!!… I’m learning!!…. Thank you so much for looking… I love your comments!!… Hugs, Jeannie

From My Kitchen

Card cut (choose the shift button and the coffee cup feature key) cut @ w 3.65 x h 2.38...

Larger card cut for the inside cut @ w 3.65 x h 2.38... for this cut you will need to unlink the w & h.

The easiest way to get everything to line up on each layer is this....Place your card on the mat... then weld your grass to it...then weld the snail shadow to the grass...then weld 2 corners to the top.... group all of this together... duplicate... then delete the snail shadow... duplicate this and delete  your grass .... now for the tricky part... on the piece where you have deleted your grass and your snail click on this then click on your weld key.... click on the triangle to un-group just the triangle ...then click on the circle inside the triangle to un-group that... click on your group button again... now click on any clear space on your mat... then click your group button and click on your un-grouped triangle and your un-grouped circle... this will group just these two items together so you can duplicate them and make corners for the bottom of your top square...see mat.... after you get all your corners placed group everything together and make sure everything is welded.
