1. These are the kinds of sketches that get me in trouble because I am an *eye-baller* not a *measurer*! Yikes!
2. I pretty much hold my breath until I get it all put together and it ends up being *close enough*!
3. I made this card for Holly (Toy's) Aunt who is once again battling cancer, this time in her kidneys.
4. Some of you may know that Holly recently moved to my home town, actually to my hometown neighborhood. We now live about 2 blocks from each other. Pretty cool huh.
5. I shoulda done a little better job on my matting cuz Holly is gonna see this close up! Yikes!
6. If you would like to send Holly's Aunt a card I know it would give her the strength to start yet another battle with cancer. She has been through alot! I am glad Holly is here now to help take care of her. Here is the detailed information from Holly:

She is going to love this Cindy. So soft and wonderful. Great coloring and the perfect set to use. I think it is awesome that you both live so close. It is comforting to have a friend during these difficult times. TFS
