The Last Card of the Weekend

Have I mentioned I am on a mission? I have been making Thank-you cards for weeks, and I have about 50 more to go. I am making them for my daughter Crystal's wedding shower gifts. I started making the same card over and over, but I got so bored that I just had to start making them different. I found a new challenge today, and I couldn't resist making one more thank-you card.

At Squigglefly, they carry a lot of Cheryl Alger's images and I adore her work. Today, I realized that there is a blog called Sassy Cheryls Challenge Blog (I saw it on Sue's blog here). The challenge this week is Monochromatic and you have to use a Sassy Cheryl image to fit the challenge rules. I went straight to the Sassy Cheryl store and purchased this super fun A Number 2 Pencil and Dream - but I cropped off the dream letters and wrote Thank-you. I love the Dream words but with so many Thank-you cards to do....



So only 49 more cards to go! Hugz!

    I applaud you for making all those thank yous by hand. I love the look of this one. It fits so well with her having the pencil in her hand to write. Hugs!
