Thinking of you

 A gentlemen in our church, had such low sodium that he was put in the ICU for a couple days, then spent a couple in the hospital, he is now home but still weak.  Just wanted to let him know we are thinking of him and praying he will be well soon.

That just so happened to be our next challenge in our group to make a thinking of you card. We went to the bookstore on Saturday and I found this two part die in a card making magazine and hubby talked me into getting it to make my Thinking of you card with it, isn't he a sweetie.  You line up one side of the die, cut out the image, take that die away and line up to cut the other side, or you can do both sides the same if you want.


I cut the dragonflies out of pattern paper and fussy cut around the part that is attached to put on top of the ones on the base of the die cut. Sentiment is from the same set.

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

That turned out beautifully! Love dragonflies. ;) And the colors. Your Hubby is a Sweetie. I'm sure knows how thoughtful you are - so he's happy to support "the card making habit". Lol Blessings on your Thursday. 💗
