Good Morning


Heidi Ho, friends!  Hope all is well in your little part of the world!  I do want to apologize to the folks that still can not comment on my blog.  I just don't know why.  Glad you figured out that you can do it under reply.  They just can't keep a good blogger down!

Today I want to share a card I made for someone who quite suddenly landed in the hospital.  I am sure I probably had an appropriate card in my stash, but I wanted something fresh, new, and uplifting!


This flower digi has been on my desk for a week.  We used it as a test for my new printer.  It has no designer attached.  I am so glad that many of the designers now put their name in the file link so we can keep them together or just plain old give them credit.

card stock:  Pure Luxury from Gina K.
stamps:  Clear Dollar
designer paper:  K&Co
ink:  Distress Ink in Milled Lavender and Iced Spruce.
coloring:  Copic Markers
embellishments:  pink gingham ribbon, Stickles

 That is it for me this morning.  For those of you who also follow my DD's blog, she is on week 2 of working until bedtime.  Poor thing just wants to stamp!  Don't give up on her, she will return!  Time to hit the shower, and get to work!

Mary Anne,
Your friend will love this thoughtful card. I hope it is nothing serious. Tell Dee not to worry I don't even work all day and still can't find time to stamp right now.
