Sending Birthday Wishes Card Using Dream Cafe Art Owls

Hello friends!  How are you?  I hope everyone is staying well. It sounds like there is a lot of illness going around right now.  My husband got COVID and thought it was just a scratchy throat.  I ended up with it 4 days later.  I was able to avoid it for 5 yrs; but I wasn't so lucky this time.  I lost my ability to smell and taste and still do not have them back yet.  It is hard to eat or drink when everything tastes horrible.  Please take care of yourself.

I created several cards before I got sick; but I did not take any photos.  This is one I created for my grandson's birthday next week.  I forgot to mail out cards while I was sick.  I didn't know which end was up during that 2 weeks.  We even forgot our own wedding anniversary.  Lol!  This card is gorgeous in person; but the photo does not do it justice.

CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024.  I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies.  They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!
