A little hello


Thanks everyone for your lovely thoughtful comments about my grandma.  She is a little better today but not by much.  The doctors are giving her a 50/50 chance of leaving the hospital alive.

But onto something happier.  Here is my entry into this month's Birdie Brown challenge where we get to use her freebie digis!  And this month she gave us two freebies to work with and here's what I did with them...



I love that apple tree and sweet bear!  I also used MFT Die-Namics Picket Fence, Flat Bottom Cloud and My Mind's Eye Sweetest Thing Bluebell paper pad.

Okay, I am off now.  Thanks again for visiting and I will see you this evening on my blog rounds as I'm missing your inspiration!





I am entering my card into the following challenges:

I hope your grandma improves Mary J, sometimes people have inner reserves of strength that you never knew they had and they can astound everyone, I know that from years of nursing so I am hoping that your grandma can find some of this now.
Your card is adorable as always, love the clouds on the patterned paper and that cute bear! x
