Hello
friends. I hope everyone is doing
well. It is still hot and muggy in
Southern CA. I hope it is cooling off in
remainder of the US. I haven’t had much
time to play lately. I spent the last 3
days on the Internet and phone; trying to find a microwave that would fit on
our counter top in place of the old one that quit working. LOL!

I found
time to create this really quick card for my mother’s caretaker. She loves my cards; so I decided to create her a
Thank you card. I don’t know what my
family would do if there wasn’t someone willing to take care of my mother. It is a blessing to have someone who can do
those things for my mother; and to check on her 5 days a week. I asked her to come and stay with us; but she isn't able to fly on a plane right now; and she really wanted to live at home.
I traded
products with a friend of mine; so I was able to get the Cricut Anna Griffin
Bridal and Soirees Cartridge free. It is
fun when you trade with friends; rather than having to buy everything. She had two; so I took one off of her
hands. LOL! I love butterflies; and thought this was a very pretty card. I had a challenge finding a place for the sentiments; so they wouldn't show through to the front. LOL! I could have added a back to the front of the card; but I liked it open; as it was meant to be.

Thank you card
Inside card
Using CTMH August SOTM
I didn't want the sentiments to show through the butterflies; so I had to turn the sentiments at an angle. LOL!
