This is for the Ways to use It Challenge – bells. Like the whistle on a train, the bell is used a means of communication and warning, especially at crossings. On this vintage train image, there is a tiny bell with a string into the cab for the engineer to pull when needed. This card is going to a friend who went into the hospital in early January for a 3 day stay and is still there! Due to complications, he needed a second surgery. Now it looks like his healing is finally on track. Today’s challenge gave me the inspiration for his card. I’ll send this with some jokes & riddles about trains to help pass the time. He can entertain the staff and his visitors. TFL

What a terrific masculine card, and one of my favorite scriptures. What words of encouragement for your friend! Saying a little prayer for his continued healing.
