I was in my 'Acetate Addiction' phase of stamping (ok, I still have those issues!) and Deb made a comment on an acetate card I made with a horse on it. I sent it to her, and that was one of the best things I ever did, because now I have another true friend. Deb and I can share everything, and I feel as if I have always known her. Online we used to joke about calling each other, and when I finally dialed her number, all we did was laugh at each other. It was great! And, we still do that, even when we are sharing heart concerns in prayer- she still makes me laugh.
This card is not really based on Deb's card, but the 'essence' of Deb. She loves ultra girly things. I could not find my Baroque Motifs, so I substituted Tres Chic because of the words. The very top reads 'believe' and this has become a special word to both of us. The other words speak of Hope, and Laughter, and that is sooo 'Deb'. The inside sentiment is from Hampton Arts and reads 'A friend loveth at all times' Prov 17:17
Enjoy your Twisted FS Day sis. I send you much love, and this will be on it's way to you....someday. Yes, I am still the Slacker. LYMI
Please see Deb's gallery here if you'd like to play along, and use the key words TSC0807 so we can enjoy your case of Deb too. Thanks for looking!

Really "purty" card Pat - and touching story too. Makes me want to go do a case of Deb too. I love those letters and your colors are so soft and beautiful. Can you send me some instructions on how to play with acetate so I can get this addiction too?

This is so gorgeous! I think I know now what I'm going to do with those 20 sheets of printed acetate I got about 5 years ago. I just love the initials, the picket fence, pretty much everything!
