Gina K. And Etsy Inspired #24!!

I've got lots of Gina K. shares today..........................As most of you know, Gina's father recently passed away. I just wanted to be able to send a card to let her know I care..........I wish I would have had some wonderful words of wisdom to share........but I didn't.........and I don't. But I do know that just to see that so many people care, it truly does make it just a teeny, tiny bit more bearable. Not better, because we aren't the ones that can heal the hurt and pain from death.........but just to be able to send a hug and a prayer can make that burden seem just the least bit lighter.

This is the card I sent to Gina............it uses Melanie's Hand In Hand set and Asela's Flowers For Daisy set. If you would like to send her a card her address is:

Gina Krupsky
4701 Dale-Curtin Drive
McFarland, WI 53558

This is the card I sent to Gina's mom.........it uses Gina's own Take Flight set. If you would like to send her mother a card, her address is:

Ruth Aurelio
P.O. Box 164
McFarland, WI 53558

This card is also for the weekly Etsy Inspired Challenge, this is #24........Ashley picks such cute Etsy shops and we each interpret that and make some projects to help you all get your mojo flowing and participate!!!! Each week the Etsy shop Ashley picks donates a prize to the winner!!! So browse around this week's shop, JennyBunny, (look under her sold items to find more photos!) get inspired and create a card or other project and then link your project in a post on Ashley's Blog before next Saturday!!! It's that easy!!! Check out my fellow DT girls for some more fabulous inspiration!!! And hugs to Ashley as she still isn't feeling well!!!!

I made this little treat holder........well, I'm experimenting with some ways to make some little gifties..........and watermarks too obviously..........but I forget to use it on most of my photos!!!! LOL This is a simple 2, 5, 7, 10 box that I made using the SCS Template.......and I'm getting addicted at how simple but cute they can be!!! I used Melanie's Cuddles & Hugs set for this.........and Copics.......still practicing!!! LOL And those are super yummy Hot Cocoa Kisses!!!!

This was for a past Etsy challenge......I love the look of Swiss Dots and roses!!! The gorgeous rose image is from Melanie's A Year In Flowers set. I stamped the roses in Pretty In Pink and colored the stems with a Copic and then ran it thru the Cuttlebug. The sentiment came from Melanie's Say It With Flowers stamp set.
I hope you all get to enjoy a wonderful weekend just spending time with those you love!!!!!
Have a Happy Hearts Day and have a happy heart!!!!!

I think you just said those beautiful words you didn't think you had in you. :) What a lovely way to explain how we all want to send our love to Gina and her family during this difficult time and what better way to do it than with gifts from the heart. I am sure her family is loving all of the terrific cards and love that went into them that everyone is sending.
