December was a tough month for me as my Grandma who lived on the ranch with my parents was placed in a nursing home. She has come to the point where she needs more care that my parents aren't able to do. So, it has been a huge adjustment and I still have my good and not so good days.....
I have decided that I will send her a card at least once a week to keep her spirits lifted....this is one of many that I made over Christmas to send to her.
Thanks for looking and listening....I truely appreciate it.....
HUGS~

Wonderful color combo!!!
Very striking with the razzle and black.
Neat design too.....especially like the silver bling.
Wishing your Grandma the best.....

Oh Deb, your grandma will really LOVE this card. You've done a beautiful job with the colors and that image is one of my favs. Love the little silver pearls, but then you knew I would, right??? Your paper piercing looks fantastic and LOVE that sewing!!! My father had to live out his final years in a nursing home before he passed away in 2008 and it was very difficult, but he needed constant care and was not ambulatory at all. He did well there overall and I'm happy he had a safe place to be nearby me, but it was difficult. So, I feel for you, but pray your grandmother will be safe and well taken care of!! TFS!!

I love your card and I know your grandmother will too. We all still enjoy getting mail in our mailboxes. Your grandmother is lucky to have someone who cares so much about her. Keep sending her those cards.
