I’m so blessed

…to have so many wonderful friends! 

Last week was a tough one and to top it all off, our computer crashed.  We lost all our e-mails so if you sent me anything important, you might want to resend it.  LOL.  But a dear friend brightened my day to turn the whole week around…she sent me an extra set that she received of the PTI Botanical Silhouettes, a limited edition set that is earned from purchases throughout the year.  How awesome is that?!  I love it!

I am in need of several birthday cards this month and I wanted to make her a thank you card as well.  So I had some fun Tuesday night creating these…

I was inspired by this card that my friend, Cheryl, made.  I love the colors!  Tomorrow I will have another card to share that I made with this set.
