Due to an unexpected case of the flu, I had to CASE a card I made a year ago instead of the new idea I had...this is the first time in ages that I was feeling too bad to make a card. When I find a digi that I love , I sometimes color 2 of them, which is what I did with this image. So, all I had to do was come up with a new way of making it into a card. The origional card used metallic cardstock, a celebration sentiment die cut, no tag and no bow. This card is more fun and whimsical. I made it for my DH to cheer him up. He lost his job 8 months ago and job hunting is getting him down. My little cards usually brighten his day.
TFL, Francie

What a bright and beautiful card with a fun sentiment - SO sorry you have the flu - hope you are better soon - praying that your DH finds a job - that's a difficult thing to be going through....

Francie, This card is so colorful and so much fun! I knew it was yours without even seeing your name. It is sure to lift your husbands spirits! I think it so much harder on men to lose a job, especially when finding a new one takes a while. that happened to my DH at one time in his career as well. They are so hard on themselves. Hope the card cheers him up and let him know I am cheering him on to a new and better job as well!

I knew immediately this was your card. I love the bright, cheerful colors and the sunshine. So sorry about your hubby's job and sure hate to hear you have the flu. I hope making this card made you feel better.
