Card Ministry

We are making some lovely cards for St. John's to use today. I always love getting together with this incredible group of ladies. They are such a sweet, caring group and just so much fun! The first one will be blank so the staff can use it for thank you, thinking of you etc. The other two will be birthday cards for our Seniors.
Sometimes I create my own designs, layouts and all. Sometimes I use a layout from a challenge and choose the colors and stamps I'd like to use. And sometimes I CASE (copy and share everything) a card design. I may change the colors or other aspects of the original design or copy it as is. I try hard to give credit to the person who created the design. The ship card below was copied as is from a Pinterest pin. There was no direct link to the website it came from, nor was there a name. If it is your design, please let me know and I will certainly give credit:)
