Word of Mouth Encouragement Card

One of the neighbor ladies I have met lost her husband 1 1/2 years ago.  She is still having a hard time.  My heart goes out to her because I can truly say I know what she's going through.  I don't think you ever get over it.  You just have to rely on God.  

Anyway, I was thinking about her this morning and thought a card might let her know I care and I'm here for her.  I recently purchased the "Word of Mouth" Imagine cartridge, so I decided to use it.  This cut emphasizes Hope. 

Card Recipe:
A2 Card Base
Hope Cut from Word of Mouth Imagine Cartridge - cut at 4 inches and layers.
Brown cardstock - cut at 4"X 5.25"
Ribbon

This is the inside of the card.  I was trying to find cardstock to match the front of the card when it occurred to me to use the colors on the Imagine Cartridge.  DUH!!  I chose an accent from the Artiste cartridge, page 65 - cut one at 4" and the other at 3.75".  I printed my sentiment on off-white cardstock and placed it on the labels.

Thank you for your visits.  Donna & I appreciate them.  You're why we do this.  God Bless You!!!  Peggy
