Have you ever needed to tell someone thank you for doing something for you or a random act of kindness? There are a lot of people in my life right now that I need to say that to. Two of them are my brother & sister-in-law. The other is my neighbor that lives in front of me.
I made these two cards today to try and convey how I feel. My brother & his wife have been a source of comfort for me during the past few months. I can always count on them to be there if and when I need them.
This is a 5 X 7 card. The pink background has been embossed with another of the Cindy Loo Cuttlebug folders. The basket of flowers is a digistamp from Doodle Pantry. They really have some cute digi-stamps. The frame is cut from Cindy Loo Cricut Cartridge (page 48). I stamped a thank you on the bottom of the card.
The second card is for my neighbor. I was outside one day this week trimming my bushes with a hedge trimmer. Somehow (only I would do something like this) I managed to cut my knee with the hedge trimmer. I had a huge mess in the front yard and didn't know how I could get it cleaned up. My neighbor came over and cleaned it all up so I wouldn't have to.
I used the same digistamp but colored it differently. I tied a ribbon through the pot and attached it with pop dots. The background paper is from K&Co "Terri Conrad Sweet Life" paper stack. The saying on the label is part of the digistamp.
Before I complete this, I must say a big Thank You to my children. They have been my lifeline these past few months. I love you Brian & Donna.

I just found your blog tonight and I can't tell you how much it meant to me. Your cards are wonderful and you do such a neat job. I've been trying to make cards for some time now. My husband passed away in Jan. of 2010, so I know a little bit about the way you are feeling. We would have been married 53 years this past June. So my life is very at time and I thank my children for being so precious to me.
