CCEE: Cards of Encouragement

 Hello friends!

Because we've been preparing, shopping, stocking up,

I have a quick post for today.

 

Please keep South Florida in your thoughts ~

we've got a hurricane barreling towards us!

We've got all our supplies and will 'batten down the hatches'

and hope for the very, very best this weekend.

Storms are always so scary and with our baby granddaughter, Alice,

it just makes everything that much more nerve wracking :(

My post!

The CCEE Stampers theme this week:

create a card of encouragement and SEND IT!

 Today's card is for my daughter ♥

We have 3 young adult daughters and a teenage son,

and our middle daughter is a jet setter and amateur photographer.

She just returned from a week in Montreal, Canada and the Caribbean the month before that and her photographs are just stunning!
Lucky for me, she lives at home so I'll walk this card down the hall!

 

You might remember from this post that I fell absolutely IN LOVE 

with this stamp set from Unity Stamp Company

when I was a Unity gal last year.

One of the perks of being a Unity girl for a week

is at the end, you can pick a stamp - or stamp set - as a reward.

I chose Moments Between Moments last year because it spoke to my heart

and the girl with the camera is just sensational.

For this card, I tried something new - Canon watercolor paper.

I used my Zig clean markers to colors and they were super!

 

The encouragement is on the inside of the card:

This sentiment is one of the one in the same stamp set. 

You can see what the design team has created this week

 by heading to the CCEE Stampers blog.

There is also a link up where you can add your cards, too!

I'll try to hop on as long as the electricity stays on!

We have a generator and plenty of gas, just in case.

We have a full house - everyone heading here to weather the hurricane.

I'll have to go get my mom from her house and she'll stay with us, too. 

I jonkingly told my husband, while he is entertaining by candlelight

and cooking by sterno, I'll be making lots of cardmaking by lantern :)

Big hugs, bigger blessings ♥
