My Wish for You

In my never-ending quest to make good use of all the paper scraps I have, I designed a card and made several different versions to send to some of my crafting gal pals. Everyone loves to receive a piece of fun mail, right? (Sure beats a pile of bills.) Now that the cards have started to arrive at their destinations, I can tell you about them!

I sent this card to a friend who recently returned to nursing. That is not easy to do and I wanted to wish her well as she begins her new job. I paper-pieced the dress and put some pop-dots near the bottom of the skirt so that it would float off the paper.

Here's a link to one of the other cards in this series. It was sent to a friend who brings a lot of sparkle to my life with her wit and charm. I love this hobby as it gives me a creative outlet and enables me to brighten someone else's day. I call that a win-win situation!

Thanks for stopping by today.
