This ATC was inspired by two women I met at Panera's on a Saturday morning. We'd never seen each other before. We started talking about the newspaper I was looking at, and how the only good news was that the tax checks were coming early.
This led to talk about how we were planning to use the extra cash. I happened to mention that I'd take a portion to spend on rubber stamps, and instantly, I had two new sisters. They were on their way to Janesville, where there's an amazing scrapbooking store. In about 5 minutes I knew so much about them. They were Aunt/Niece, and were making a scrapbook for a Grandmother for Christmas. They were so excited, and we talked and laughed, and I felt like I'd known them forever. This card is to all the women who spend so much time, love and money, keeping the memories.

Love it Pugs. I stared at the card and its meanings and got the message immediately, before I even read your narrative of interpretation. Bang on, I'd say. And what a fun afternoon
meeting it must have been. Find the key and you will open up
anyone's soul.

Just a wonderful layout. I've been searching the forums looking at ATC cards since I signed up for 5 (count them - five)ATC swaps but have never made any before.
I think it's amazing sometimes how much we women have in common with each other - strangers into friends.
