Get Well Soon--CCMC310

July 3, 2014

I absolutely LOVE!!! the colors that the Create With Connie and Mary Color Challenge features this week.  If I had to pick three favorite colors, these would definitely be at the top of my list!  Stop by their challenge and look at all the wonderful samples the Design Team created this week!


It was perfect timing on these colors because I got a call this morning that a dear friend of ours had fallen off a ladder and had to go to the ER.  He is one of the nicest guys I have ever known.  He is a very proud Veteran, too, so the idea for this card came together quickly.  Thank God, there were no serious injuries, but, I wanted him to know we carded!   I hope he will love the get well wishes!

Hope you will find a minute to remember a special Veteran over the Fourth of July!

Please leave a comment and let me know what you think of my card.  I love to hear from you!  Also, please join my email list in order to receive updates on my blog! THANK YOU!

Happy Stampin'!
