Birthday Card Using Conie Fong Dandelion Wishes with New CTMH Birthday Hugs and Kisses inside

Hello Friends!  Isn't the weather crazy over the United States?  Actually, I think it has been crazy all over the world.  I am feeling better now; but still not up to myself completely.  It is hard to get things done, especially when you have been sick and run down.  I feel exhausted right now.

I finally got this card finished.  I did the coloring quickly; but struggled some with my card.  It is for my granddaughter, Gabrielle - for her April birthday.  She just had a sweet baby girl in January; so I feel this card will show her how much I love her and miss her.  

My husband and I were supposed to travel to FL this month to see my new great granddaughter and several other family members; but I decided it was best to cancel the flight.  I would not have felt like traveling.  I feel I made the right decision.  It would have been too hard on my body.  Hopefully, we can go later in the year when I have my strength back.

I used I Am Roses for my flowers.  I just bought these gorgeous flowers and was very pleased with them.

Hello Card Using CTMH Celebrate Today Paper with Dragonfly stamp and thin cut

Hello Friends!  I hope you are doing well.  I think I am finally starting to get better after being sick for over a week with a bad cold, cough, etc.  I am still weak; but better than I was.  This year seems to have a lot worse cases of what used to be an ordinary cold or flu.  I have heard other stories of people being sicker than they have been before.  It is scary when it happens to you.

I happened to see someone posting on my blog news feed for Mojo Monday sketches.  I loved doing those sketches; and have really missed them since they shut down.  I decided to try and create a card using this weeks sketch; which I really love.  

I started working on a set of 6 cards for a friend of mine, who loves Dragonflies.  I managed to get 4 of them done before I got sick; and then nothing.  Once I saw the Mojo Monday sketch, I was able to create two cards with the sketch.
