Isn't this just a great card??? This card is an original made by my friend Bea who lives in Vero Beach, Florida. If you click on it for a better view, you'll see that each of those grapes are individually punched out with a hole puncher and applied to the card. That's amazing, but I know that making original cards are Bea's passion.
She uses watercolor paper, and paints it with different colors to create unique papers, which she then uses as she pleases on her cards. This is so special that she made and sent me this card for my birthday! Thanks, Bea.
I also received many other beautiful cards from friends and family with strong sentiments of caring and love that mean a lot to me. I hope the sending of cards tradition never leaves us........even though there is email, texting, and other ways. Receiving a card you can hold in your hand and read again and again is just priceless. And you can save it for another day! So a big thanks to Bea, Janet, Nancy for remembering my special day. It made turning the calendar to another year of life meaningful. And to all my telephone friends who called, like Sue and Karen. AND to all my online friends who wished me well on Facebook. You all matter to me a great deal and I won't forget it!!!!
