FWF Thanks

The other day, a dear friend asked for her crafty friends to send some thank you cards.  One of her family members is dealing with a terrible crisis and she wanted to offer some thank you cards, so that would be one less thing to worry about.  Of course, I sent her all that I had.  I probably have 100 cards in my "stash" and every so often box them up and send them to Operation Write Home ... but I had only FOUR thank you cards!  What's up with that? 

I decided to build up my stash of thank you cards.  I'm thankful for this adorable Unity stamp (Hello Pretty).  I used scraps to make all three of these cards. I'm thankful that my miserable case of shingles seems to be getting better.  I actually worked four hours in a row today....first time in 3 weeks.  (This from someone who works 50 to 60 hours a week usually....)  And I'm thankful it's FRIDAY FRIENDS WITH FLAIR time!!


Craftily yours,

Karen (karey2005)

    I'm thankful you are getting better, thankful you were able to help out Kathy (I never made it to the P.O -- had to play for a funeral), and thankful for YOU!

    These are fantastic cards! I love that stamp, too. It's so versatile. And pretty. Love you, dear.
