This was a bittersweet Valentine card to make for my DIL, Jamie (JamiePTS) who is getting so close to her reunion with Jason in Wyoming. Knowing she needs to be with her hubby, and yet, selfishly missing her already, she is more than an DIL, she is my friend.
I chose this card of Laurie's, changing the images and colors but keeping the overall layout.
The kitties at the bottom represent my grand-cats, Bruno, Cooper and Winnie who will also be leaving. Wah... I scanned an image and sized it to fit. They have been chalked and have CE on their eyes and are popped up on dimensionals.
Laurie, it is so fun to run around in your gallery! The possibilities are endless! Hope your day is the best!
Thanks for looking.

Perhaps b/f long those grand kitties will change into grandkids! What a cute cute card. Love the kitties peeking up from the bottom. I just love this truck - have not used it in a long time. Love your take on Laurie's card.

What a bitter sweet card this must have been for you to make. I bet she loved or will love this, Pat. Love your 3 kittens at the botton, and as for your little red truck, that SU set has always been one of my very favorites.
