Love the paper on.
Kenny k one is pretty as well hun love the soft colours its lush.

Hello!
Beautiful cards - but the first one is special to me as I have good memories of dancing with my father when a child. We would progress from dancing while standing on his feet while very young to learning the dance steps and becoming a 'real' dance partner! I have a photo of dancing with him as an adult shortly before he died and it is a wonderful thing we shared with him. Wishing you a happy day!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
Mina, the cards are gorgeous! But the first grabbed me with his message and tenderness!
Both cards are awesome! I love the beautiful way you did the grandfather and granddaughter card!!
beautiful, love that Mo's image and one I havent yet used.
Like all the others I am also stunned, I am also envious of your coloring skills :)
Great cards, Mina; You made a fabulous card with the Kenny K stamp and I love the Mo image you used on your chique card. xxx Marianne MW
