Just a simple card to send to a friend who's been under the weather of late.
A tree represents life, health and rejuvenation, strength and survival. It fits in perfectly with this month's fan club challenge to go green as well.
Thanks so much for looking and for all your sweet comments!

Lovely card Deena and sure to cheer up your friend. The twine and button give it an 'earthy' feel which is even more perfect for the 'Go Green' Challenge! Love that tree and all it represents - nice going Deena! Thanks for sharing!
