Friendship Card Using Conie Fong Butterfly Daisy

Hello Friends!  How are you doing?  I hope everyone is staying safe during this World crisis.  I know many of us feel helpless during this time and don't know what to believe or what to do sometimes.  It is hard to know the truth when there are so many rumors and lies out there.  

This Coronavirus is real and we have to do what we can to keep it from spreading and killing others.  The sooner we accept and follow the guidelines, the quicker we can get back to a somewhat normal life.  Good luck and stay safe.

If you want to know what you can do to help stop the spread of this virus; it is best to check the official CDC site.  Don't trust all the information that you are seeing out there as the truth.  Click here to go directly to Coronavirus information.

I know many people are at home now, due to the Coronavirus.  Some of us will have time to craft and some won't.  Our focus has to change based on the needs of our families, with so many home schooling their children now.  

Here is my latest creation using Conie Fong Butterfly Daisy.  I am so in love with these new images Conie has created.  I actually pushed myself out of my comfort zone and created the hills, grass, sky, etc.  It was a big deal for me.  I want to learn to do more in the near future.


Sentiment on front is also with this set.

Keep you, your family and others safe

Hello Friends!  How are you doing?  I hope everyone is staying safe during this World crisis.  I know many of us feel helpless during this time and don't know what to believe or what to do sometimes.  It is hard to know the truth when there are so many rumors and lies out there.  If you want to know what you can do to help stop the spread of this virus; it is best to check the official CDC site.  Don't trust all the information that you are seeing out there as the truth.  Click here to go directly to Corona Virus information.

Everyone can help reduce the spread of this virus by doing the things asked of us, especially with hand washing and social distancing.  By doing these things, we can prevent someone else from possibly dying. Don't believe it if you hear it is nothing to worry about.  It is a healthcare crisis and we all need to do what we can to stop it before it kills more people.  It isn't just the elderly who are dying.  How would you feel if your spread this virus to someone and they died; especially if it is someone you love?

Please talk to your family and try to teach them what to do and what not to do.  Here is a little analogy someone posted online in a crafting group; that I feel explains the spread of this virus better than anything else I have read.  Please be safe and keep your family safe.


Please stay safe and please do your best to listen to what is being told for you to do to help contain this virus before it's too late.  


The sooner we all do our part, the quicker this virus will be under control and the quicker we can return to our normal life.

CTMH Dragonfly All Occasion Card

Hello Friends!  I hope everyone stays safe from the new Corona Virus.  It is quite scary; but I think we have to try not panic and pray that all goes well.  It's hard to know what to do in these situations.  I think it has been here a while already; as I hear about more people realizing that they had this virus when the Drs. thought it was the flu.  Without a way to test for it, there is no way of knowing how many people have already spread it out there.  Most people will recover from it; but it's those that are older; that I am concerned about.  Please take care of yourselves and each other. 

I created a set of Dragonfly cards for my friend, Sue, before I got sick last month.  This is the 4th one of the set.  I have posted two prior to this one.  I tried to make them different from each other.
