Hugs and Kisses through the mail


My Sara called yesterday.  She had a rough day.  College is like that – the learning experiences are multi–faceted and sometimes you feel kinda beat up.  As a matter of fact, life is like that, and it would be dreadfully dull if it weren’t.  She’s fine, and she’s making good decisions, but it would sure nice to be able to give her a hug.  This is as close as I’ll get to that until she’s home for Christmas:

  • Simply Said and Define Your Life stamp sets; Texture Wheel
  • Basic Black, Bermuda Bay and Whisper White card stock
  • Basic Black and Bermuda Bay Classic Stamp pad
  • Stamp-a-ma-jig and Rhinestone brads

I sat down last night when the household quieted down to put together a love note for Sara.  It’s a relatively simple card, but I wanted the message to stand out.  I love the saturated Bermuda Bay In Color with the crisp black and white, and I think I should use brights this way more often.  Big bold colors aren’t usually my first choice, but this is a look I really like.  I hope Sara will like it too…at least more than Chemistry.

  2. Love the card. The background is pretty & something I’d never think to do. I’m going to get out my big wheels & play with them. It’s very cheerful & Sara will love it. Tell her Jenny has issues with chemistry as well.
