I found one piece of cherry paper and that's it - can you believe that? No cherry stamps, no cherry nothing, no cherries for pies or tarts, no cherries for drinks or tops of cupcakes - now if we ever do butterflies or bugs or such I'm good to go.
Seeing how it is still winter around here, cherries are in short supply, but the warm wishes being sent Shari's way are plentiful.
There are 29 cherries on my card, hopefully that is enough to let me in the front door. 29 wishes for getting well, 29 dump trucks removing snow, 29 cherry trees in full bloom, 29 of something times 29 of anything else makes for a whole of something don't you think? Oh I know 42,000 of everything - warm thoughts, cards, and wishes, and prayers and cherries being sent Shari's way.

At least you had paper. I only might have had that - it might have been strawberries so I didn't waste my time looking . Somebody else's card reminded me that I did have a bowl of icecream with a cherry on top, but it's been surprising to me how few of us have cherries. Nascar, baseball, that's not surprising. Cherries is . Your great layout really pulls the eye in to your 29 cherries - and in a few years all those cherry pits will be producing goodness knows how many cherries. Got to take the long view .

Your card is cute and the dp is just perfect. I like the sentiment you put on the front of it, that will be comforting to Shari. I love your humor, you really had a lot to do before you opened the front door. Now just get some tea and goodies, and relax for a while.

You made a very nice card with the DP. I could not find any stamps either and no dp with cherries...I guess that's why these are called challenges...smile...
