What a surprise and joy!!!!

This card is special for a couple of reasons.  First of all, it is one of the cards I created for Splitcoast's Product Review Team this month.  We were so very lucky to receive some of the new Spellbinders' Decorative Nestabilities to play with.  This card used the Crown Ovals, and I also received the Lacey Circles.  I'll share the other cards another day......

I really wanted to get this one posted as a very special friend sent me this stamp as a surprise.  I met her through the Card Angel program sponsored by Chemo Angels.  I heard about this group through SCS.  Due to the fact that your chosen recipient is dealiing with health issues, you are told that you should not expect to hear from them at all.....after all, they have so much they are dealing with, the last thing they need is another obligation.  HOWEVER, my 'assigned recipient', who I now call friend, kept in touch with me throughout her journey of treatments AND we still keep in touch today even though she has returned to good health and a normal life.  She inspired me with her positive attitude toward life, her love of friends, and her perseverence during good and bad days....all mixed with a healthy acceptance of life's many twists and turns.

So, besides thanks for the stamps, I would like to wish Gail a longggggg future with many new adventures, solid friendships, and a great sense of humor.......she deserves the BEST!!!!!

You rock, g/f!!!!!

....and...this card is now on its way to you!!!!
