Hello Card Using Conie Fong Twinkle Angel Sophie

Hello Friends!  How is everyone?  I hope you are able to spend time with family who lives with you; but staying safe from this horrible COVID-19.  It is really doing a number on California.  We are losing one person every 6 minutes to death from it here in Los Angeles County.  It is so sad.  Over 400,000 people have lost their lives in less than a year in the US.  I can't imagine how bad those families feel at this time.

I know this is happening all over the world.  Let us continue to pray for each other, no matter where everyone is located.  I wonder if I will ever be able to go anywhere ever again.  I stay home all the time.  I have to drive my car once a week; or the battery goes dead.  That is my vacation each week.  My husband took me on an hour drive one day; but that was months ago.  He does all the grocery shopping; so I am not sure I will know how to shop when this is over.  

I find being able to create cards and helping with the Conie Fong Design Team is what keeps me going.  I stay busy all the time.  I actually helped my daughter negotiate buying a car last week.  I am in CA and she is in FL; but we managed to do it over the phone with the car dealership where she lives.  It is amazing how people have learned to function in our new world.  It sure looks different than the old world we all knew, at least in CA.  

I created a card with this adorable new Conie Fong Twinkle Angel Sophie the last few days.  I used digital paper from A Bit More Time To Craft, Marble 18.  I love having a gorgeous background and sometimes regular paper just doesn't have the same effect as using a digital image on gorgeous digital paper.  This one was difficult to show up properly on a photo; but I did the best I could.  Her hair isn't quite that dark; but this was the best I could do without making the background too light.

Christmas Card Mini Slimline Using Conie Fong "Christmas Gnomes Bundle"

Hello Friends!  We made it through another year.  I am so glad that 2020 is over.  I feel so sad for all the people who lost loved ones this past year; whether it was through COVID-19 or other life causes.  It has been a rough year for many people and the losses have been tough.  Not only the loss of loved ones; but loss of job, loss of home, etc.  My thoughts and prayers are with all of you who have lost someone, a job, a home or anything/anyone this past year.  

I pray that 2021 will be a better year for all of us.  It has been hard for me and I know for many of you, who have had to stay at home for the past year.  I am high risk; so I have not been out much at all.  I stopped walking and riding my bike outside; due to so many people not wearing masks.  It is too dangerous for me to be out when people clearly don't care about their own health or the health of others.

It looks like we are going to have another very long year with more of the same.  It would be shorter if everyone did what they were supposed to do, wearing masks, social distancing, not having parties, family gatherings, etc. 

I created several Christmas cards in December; but have not had time to post all of them.  This is another one I created, using Conie Fong "Christmas Gnomes".  I am in love with these sweet images.  I also love these new Mini Slimline cards.
