My fit, athletic DH had a heart attack 2 weeks ago, all alone on the job. Unable to drive home, he saw a young woman walking with a child, & asked for help - she was a doctor! I am eternally grateful to her quick actions, at that critical time. We will visit her soon to say thank you, and this card is for her.
On the long panel across the card, I embossed the lines in the design with a stylus, then dotted liquid pearls in the flower centres. Creates a 'quilted' effect.

Gorgeous card - and how blessed you were that someone was right there to help your DH. Hope he's doing well.

Praise the Lord for that woman's help! This is a lovely thank you card for her. Love the coloring of the flower as well as all the pretty punched borders.

Your husband was so lucky to have the help he needed so quickly. I hope he (and you) are recovering well. This is a lovely card. I like the quilting idea for the paper and your liquid pearl dots are perfectly applied .
