A circle is round, it has no end. That's how long I'm gonna be your friend.
My new digs are offering some exciting new adventures and amazing discoveries, but none compare to one of the biggest perks of my new location.. My dear friend and her darling family moved away from us (and broke our hearts) many years ago, and now to my delight, we're residing in the same fabulous city. This lovely lady has stunning strawberry tresses and two little dogs that she and her husband spoil shamelessly. When I saw THIS Digi Doodle Studios image, I knew it was meant for the card I would create to thank her for all the loving assistance she and her hubby offered us during our challenging move. Now, our lunch and shopping dates (masked and socially distanced, of course) are filled with the same laughing and lively chatter we enjoyed when we first met thirty two years ago.
I colored adorable Maddy and her precious dog, Molly, with Copic makers and created an easel card scene in Cricut Design Space for the grinning duo to relax in. I backed my card panels with silver foil cardstock and added a matching iridescent flower and silver glitter leaves to accent the cool tones of my color scheme. Clear gems accentuate the adornments on their stylish coifs. I was excited to find the perfect sentiment stamp in my stash,
One of my favorite things about crafting is I can create something personal, from my heart, to express my love to a cherished friend. I'll deliver this one in person after we enjoy a long awaited dinner prepared in my pristine and barely used cozy kitchen. I plan to have it well broken in by Thanksgiving. Life is good!
Thanks for visiting.
Go forth and cherish your friends, both of the old and new variety.
