This is for Dot who took a fall and needs some cheer. I used her favorite colors of red and yellow and incorporated a puppy (another fav), and if you look closely the border has puzzle pieces stamped on it. Dot likes to do puzzles. So as a puzzle aficionado myself I wanted to figure out a way to get those on this card By the way the dog stamp is usually delivering a Merry Christmas message..I had to mask that out and sub a Get Well message instead..thank goodness for PTI's tiny tags set that has "tiny" messages.

This is so cute, Polly. I love the little message and the puzzle pieces are just perfect for Roberta's aunt. I love working puzzles, also.

Wow, Polly, you are so artistic! I love this gorgeous card with the darling puppy holding the get well sign. I don't know if it was intentionally, but the "dots" on your white embossed circle says Aunt Dot to me! You've mastered all of Aunt Dot's favs and I'm sure she'll love it.

What a wonderful, personalized card you created for her, Polly! How neat that you were able to use a Christmas stamp to work on this. I'm also amazed that you designed a card with all the things she likes. She will LOVE this!
