It’s been a couple of tough weeks around here. One friend is home recuperating from a masectomy, another friend had surgery (more to come, perhaps) following a life-threatening fall, and yesterday one of my dearest friends received a diagnosis of a malignant brain tumor. She went to the ER on Sunday with flu-like symtoms and the tumor was discovered on a CAT scan. Who knows how long she might have walked around with this without knowing had she not gotten some kind of infection. Prayers for all of them would be appreciated!
I do have some Christmas crafts to share when there’s time again to ready them for the blog, but for today, here are the last two projects I’ve posted at the Scrap-Mart blog. My time on the DT has come to an end. I’ve really enjoyed my association with all the wonderful folks there, especially Katie, who is a fantastic DT Coordinator.
A wintery card made with Canvas Corps and Heartfelt Creations products.
This was made with October Afternoon’s Holdiay Style papers and snowflake stickers, and a new LifeStyle Crafts Snowflake border die, which was just perfect for this layout. I hid the jounaling on a stamped journaling card, since there wasn’t a good place for it on the layout.
In all the rush and busyness of the last few days before Christmas, don’t forget to take time to hug all those closest to you, and tell them you love them!
An important reminder, Karen, thank you. I’ll be praying for your friends xx
I’m so sorry to hear of all your news and I’ll be thinking about you all over Christmas x

Oh my Karen! You and your friends will be in my thoughts – sending some healing vibes out into the Universe!
Oh Karen, I’m definitely sending prayers your way as you support your friends in these difficult situations. May the Lord lay His healing hand on each of them and fill their homes with love and laughter this Christmas season!

Karen, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your friends. This is dreadful news. Unfortunately I am able to fully empathise this year as we have had a similar past couple of weeks with three tragic incidents with family and friends.
Take care, your pages are beautiful and I hope you are able to find some peace and strength and a little joy.
Merry Christmas Karen and hope all your friends are well enough to enjoy it. Love the colours on your LO and the snowflake border and that card reminds me I should get off this computer and make those last cards.
Keeping your friends in my prayers Karen. I love the photo cards. Wishing your family a very wonderful Christmas.
Rinda
