I'm hoping you are doing all that you can to be kind to yourself. <br />Love the CAS look of this card with the cheery pops of color!

I understand what you mean about all that is going on right now, it almost makes you wonder what could be next, this has been quite the year so far.Conniecrafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09266327228870948083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-80739375655446921292020-06-09T09:45:00.210-07:002020-06-09T09:45:00.210-07:00Your card is not only CAS Leslie...it's FABULO...Your card is not only CAS Leslie...it's FABULOUS!! I love the offset bell die cut...the little pop of red showing through is just a perfect way to highlight those beautiful bells! Love the whimsical sentiment and all the color, and also the embossing on the card base...it really does make for a delightful card!! So very sorry to hear about your friend Sherri too, but am glad to hear that her stamping things are going to loving homes! I wouldn't mind sending her a card also if you'd be willing to share an address?? Thanks again for sharing your lovely, lovely card with us at CAS Christmas Leslie!!

Yes, I feel so sad at what has happened to Sherri, she was on a design team at DRU with me and she so loved what she was doing and we miss her. I looked at her 'sale' and all I could think was that will be me someday and hope her dies/stamps will be as loved by someone as she loved them.

Your card may be clean and simple but it is cute - cute - cute!! I really like the bell die! I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. Hopfully, she was able to take some craft suppies with her. When Joe's sister was in assisted living they had some nice craft times and some residents took over the classes when able.

I love that bell die used that way and I also like the frame used on both of them. Too your friend could not keep some of her crafting things and use them while at the home. When my Mom went into the home she was allowed to keep her sewing machine as she loved to sew. In fact, she often did mending for some of the resident's clothing. And, she made a couple small quilts too. Your friend could share her supplies with the activity session and teach others to make pretty cards.Verna Angerhoferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13966604332988555300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3726403261110080226.post-89543083276944194492020-06-08T09:21:01.977-07:002020-06-08T09:21:01.977-07:00What a pretty white on white background, Leslie.

I can tell how difficult this news is to you. That is so lovely of her Grandson to create a website to sell Sherri's goodies. I took a look and so much is already sold, that is great! As for your card, love a CAS card! No matter how simple your card is you always put so much detail! Love the complete design, and love how you did the dual layer of the bells and the inside of the card! Thanks for sharing today Leslie, always lovely to see your creations!
