For a dear friend

Today I have a card to share for a dear friend of mine. Although I have been under the weather since Tuesday, nothing compares to what she has endured. My friend, Gina, was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. You can read more about her story here. She is currently in Texas participating in a clinical trial. I made her this card to send her way. These colors are some of my favorites. I am submitting it for 2 challenges: Play Date Cafe and Make-it-Mondays: glittered buttons. I love you, Gina! Keep on fighting, girl!!!!

  5. Beautiful colors, and love what you've done with them! And btw, cracked up and felt sorry for your kidlet all at once with that bucket story! They really don't know what just happened at that age!

  13. This is really beautiful, and the thoughts and sentiments behind it--even sweeter. I hope for the best for your dear friend. And, usually I am the one checking the blog posts at 9PM here, but you beat me to it tonight--thank you so much for your kind words and letting me know about CAS-Friday's. Today was a tough one, and I don't even think I would have checked at all. You are so encouraging--I didn't even think that card was eligible for that challenge, until you left me a comment suggesting I enter. I figured, if anyone would know, it was you, so I did. Thanks for being on the lookout for me.
