Get Well Card and Some Challenges...

Hi Friends~ I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday weekend!  We are unofficially into summer here.  Today was the last day of school for my kids, and they are well ready for a fun-filled summer.  I must admit, I have been looking forward to it as much as I think they have been. 

Sadly, my post today is the result of some bad news that my husband found out about a very young co-worker of his.  She is a mere 30-years old and has been diagnosed with breast cancer.  It is always a tragic thing to hear of news like this, but when a young lady who is only in the young stages of her adult life is stricken with such a thing, it strikes those of us that are Mothers in a tender spot.  She does not have children yet, and I think she would have really liked to have at some point.   We are all wishing her a complete recovery with as little discomfort as possible.  She has a surgery coming up here shortly as this cancer is seeming to be too aggressive to wait, so my husband asked if I could make a nice card for her to wish her a quick recovery and let her know that she has our prayers and support. 

As you all know, I have been out of the loop here for a bit with my crafting, and I have a bit of a lack of mojo.  Get well and sympathy cards are not easy for me on a good mojo day, so this was exceptionally difficult for me to come up with.  It's a rather simple card, but I am hoping is a little cheerful as well as full of prayerful wishes.  I'm also hoping that it doesn't come across as Easter-y.  I could have chose different colors, I suppose, but this seemed to fit well at the time. 

I've decided to enter this into some challenges as I truly have missed them in my absence.

Hugs,
