Thinking of You!

Hi everyone!

It's a dull rainy day here in New England, makes for a lazy day. I just started with a cold last night & I'm trying to take care of it before it gets worse, do you think I will succeed? I hope so 'cause who likes to be sick...NO ONE!!! Any way, I just received an invite for a little gathering next month to celebrate my great nephew Roger's marriage, remember I told you they decided at the last minute to get married in Vegas? I'm so happy for them!

Now on to my card, I made this card this weekend for a dear friend who has not been feeling well lately, she is always in my thoughts & by the time she receives this card I'm hoping she will be feeling better & that my card will put a smile on her face! I decided to make a long card but had no envelopes for it so I thought I would make it a little longer to fit inside a business envelope. I can see that my next SU order will have to include some long envelopes! I still need to see Pam & get my orders from September & October, I'm going to need them real soon & then place another order & this one is going to be huge! I need so much stuff! Well that's it for today, I hope you all have a great weekend! Thanks for stopping by today & spending a little of your time with me, I really appreciate it.

Get well soon, my friend.

Love that card. I'm always in the same 4x6 size mode that I forget we can make different sizes until I see such a beautiful creation like what you've done.

Hugs,
