Hope Card

Today I made a card for HOPE. I have much hope that things will get better. I hope everyone has a wonderful day. I hope that my work is inspiring to you. Hope means to me it is the anticipation of something good to come and to believe it will.



I used the Tim Holtz Sizzix Snowman die, the Pinetree die, the Hope movers and shapers die and the snowflake border die. I am playing with my Tim Holtz Sizzix dies and trying out some of his techniques and his style. I think we learn from  experimenting. That is how we know our likes and dislikes.
I put snow on the pinetrees with Liquid applique then took my heat tool and puffed it up like snow.
The flowers I took a 1-3/4" and a 1-1/4" circle punch and hand cut it into a spiral.
Then rolled up the flowers.

Hugs, my friend!
