sending wishes...

my friend patty had surgery this week for treatment of breast cancer.  i wanted to make a card to send for a little happiness during what is going to be a painful recovery.  this is what i created.  inside the card says "hang in there."   speedy recovery, patty!

this card must break a record for the number of stamps i have used on one card!  i think it is around 9 or 10!  i've found two new favorite colors from the new in-colors from stampin up...pool party and island indigo.  both such great blues.  and lucky limeade is an awesome green ink.

stamps: purple onion, ippity, unity, jillibean soup+unity, iron orchid designs+unity, studio g
cardstock: island indigo, blushing bride
ink: island indigo, crumb cake, cherry cobbler, certainly celery, soft sky, old paper distress, onyx black

Your friend is going to appreciate this special card. I wish her the best. I am a four year breast cancer survivor and it made my life cheerier when I got handmade cards. Best of luck.
