For Cath (sans CHA) with Love Blog Hop


Today Im sharing this card I made for Moxie Fab's Cath Edvalson who's not able to go to this year's CHA due to health issues. When I found out that there was going to be a blog hop for her, I just had to join in.  Here's my card:


I met her a couple years ago when I attended CHA at Chicago. I was so thrilled to see her and take a picture with her:


She was so sweet and gracious about it while I was bouncing around with excitement. I hope she feels better soon…maybe she needs a trip to a warmer climate to help the healing along? How about Hawaii, Cath?

If you'd like to join in the hop or see others who have joined in, please check out Virginia's blog here. Thank you Virginia and Lorena for putting this together and giving us a chance to show our love to Cath!

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Versamark

    What a beautiful card, it's so serene. If Cath can't make it to Hawaii I'd be up for a visit!! The north of england in the UK doesn't sound quite as exciting!! xxx

    I just love this bright, happy card, Nadine! What sweet florals! What happy white space! What a perfectly styled font! Thank you so much for working this up on my behalf--and for sharing that photo of us as well! And I do think a trip to Hawaii is just what the doctor ordered--someday, at least anyway! In the meantime, mahalo my friend!

    Love,
    Cath

    Your card is beautiful, Nadine. I have the Flutterby Friend stamp set, but have hardly used it. You inspired me to use the set again.
