FIRST COMMUNION

I miss posting cards more regularly and hope to be back on a more regular schedule very soon.  Wednesday I made time to make three cards because this evening our granddaughter, Abby, is receiving the Sacrament of First Communion at church.  The cards below are ones I made for the two Great Grandmas and us to give her for her celebration.Our gift to her is a special necklace purchased for her while we were in Italy in March.

 This is the card from us as her Grandparents
I've posted this style before since I like to use it for a lot of religious events.

I now have both of the rooms in our home finished that we have been working on.  There still remains a few odds and ends to put back into place but for the most part it is done and I am very happy with the results of the "guest" bedroom.  The closing date for my mother's property is set for this next week but not sure if we're going to be able to meet that date due to a job that has to be complete before it can be approved.  We still have a few things to get out but the new owner is willing to give us some extra time for removing some articles.

Thank you for stopping by!

All three of the cards you made for Abby are so pretty, Vicki. I bet she felt really special! That's awesome that you have gotten so much done around your house, too. How exciting and fun!

Originally I posted this card with just the background pieces and I may have posted this card again after adding the leaves and sentiment.  ...
