Wishing You God's Blessing on Your Confirmation



Hello there...a card for no particular challenge today (I know don't fall over in shock!).  We're heading up to Pittsburgh this weekend for our niece, Erin's, confirmation.  Of course, I had to make her a card to go with her gift.  I'm her confirmation sponsor and am thrilled we can make it for this special occasion for her.

Now...I did have a mishap on this card...check out the card below.  I got all the way to taking the picture before I realized part of the sentiment was missing!  So...off came the cross onto a new card with a corrected sentiment. I wasn't sure I loved the flourish on the first version so I left it off.

Hope you have a great weekend ahead too!

Beautiful! May have to use your card as a guide, my daughter is making her confirmation in a few weeks. Your card is stunning!

This is lovely, Lynn. I think the goof was a blessing in disguise because I like it better without the flourish. That extra line fills in the card perfectly.

It's like the PTI MIM card I made once where I accidentally put the word and twice, I didn't notice it till someone pointed it out to me... beautiful card. And I'm happy to report I finished my card order and have prepped tonight's card class...

A beautiful card for your nieces confirmation Lynn! Of course they are both beautiful but without the cross seems more true to your beautiful clean CAS style;) Have a great week as well and safe travels to Pittsburgh. Brooklyn leaves for Europe Friday night!

Congratulations and blessings to your niece. And I do like the flourish, but like the card without it a wee schmick better. It's gorgeous, and one of my granddaughters gets confirmed in May, so I just might have to CASE another one of your cards, lol! Just beautiful. Bev

I do that so many times but usually try to correct it in some way rather than make a new card! I do love the flowers in the cross, it has given me an idea-thanks for the inspiration x

How wonderful! So happy for your niece. I actually think I like it better without the flourish because it draws more attention to the beautiful cross and flowers. Yay for good mishaps. :)
