Mini Pocket Letter Using Art by Miran Classy Cheryl - August Progressive Facebook Challenge

Hello friends.  How is everyone doing in this hot summer?  I have been having some major health challenges and unable to eat without severe stomach, back and migraine pain.  I would appreciate prayers from anyone who can take the time to pray for me.  I am at the end of my rope.  I keep trying to create more cards to take my mind off of the pain.  Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.  I always hate to burden others; but I know it always helps when I ask for Prayers.  I am having a lot of testing done to try and determine what is going on; but everything takes time.  It will be at least two weeks before the results come back.


It is time for another fabulous Art by Miran Progressive Challenge using this new Art by Miran Classy Cheryl.  I helped Art by Miran to name her and suggested Classy Cheryl after my very close friend Cheryl ; who is really like a sister to me.
