Sunday Sketch and Stamp - Challenge #97 - Marie's Sketch and DT Call


Hi Everyone,

Wow!!!  I say to the weather, it is gorgeous outside it's warm as well.  I might go outside and sort my Mum's planting out.  But first, I must tell you about the Card I am going to post.  First, I found Sunday Sketch and Stamp, then I decided to make a Get Well Card for my Mum's next door neighbour, he has been so kind to my Mum and me.  He has a bad heart and on Tuesday he went in to hospital and he two stents put into his main artery to his heart.  He has since been round to my Mum's and told her that if there is anything that needs doing he will do it. He's so lovely, my Mum told him he is not to do anything, so I thought I would make him a Card.

So here it is:


Card Materials

6 x 6 Card - Craftwork Cards
