"Here is a card I made for an 11 year old little boy named Mark, I came across a card from his aunt Cookie (StampGroover) made for him this morning, and my heart just sank, thinking about him.
I wanted to add something meaningful to him, as a boy he might enjoy soccer, but then I found this fun little clip Priscilla sent me, it 's a thumbs up. I just glued it there and thought of what it means. We all recognize this universal sign, Thumbs up of course, but I was thinking is this what I want to say really. So I looked up wikipedia and found that it does symbolize harmony and kind feelings...how appropriate for that is what I send to this little boy to help him be courageous in the days ahead."
Cookie, know that Mark is in my thoughts and prayers and will be making new cards soon. Send him and his family our love.

What a great card, Peggy! That "thumbs up" clip is SO perfect. Such a cute image and such an encouraging symbol! You put a lot into this card and it shows! I know he and his family will appreciate how YOU took "the ball and ran with it"!
