I made a bunch of these thank you cards for the fantastic gals in my Mom’s group. They were all so wonderful to me while my back was out and after I went in for my back surgery. They took turns watching my son and taking him to fun events and also helped my hubby out with meals. Spending 4 months on the couch and not being able to go out of the house or do anything really brought me down. They really brightened up my life so I wanted to make something really bright to thank them for their kindness. Sometimes (like now for me) saying ‘‘thank you’’ just doesn’t seem near enough to cover the overwhelming generosity of friends…

I LOVE this! It's so bright and colorful with a fabulous sketch design. Great use of dps and Cuttlebugging mixed in there, too. The little organdy ribbon is adorable. Into my faves!

So much detail--the textures, colors, dimension--what a GORGEOUS card! You may end up taking care of the friends who helped you--from their jaw hitting the floor! Awesome work- straight into my favorites!
