True Beauty…

Hello and Happy Thursday! 

Today I have a card made with Rosie from Whimsy & Stars Studio.    Did you get her when she was a available for download on Facebook?  If not, you might want to join the Whimsy & Stars Studio group on Facebook.  You can join here so you don’t miss out on any future freebies.      If you missed her, she is now available for purchase in the shop.

 

2012-05-17 WSS Rosie WM

 

Rosie is so pretty!  I had to use the sentiment that came in the paper pad I used.   It says “True beauty lies within.  I know that yours will shine so brilliant it will be blinding.”    I just love it!

Here is a look at Rosie before I started coloring and paper piecing.

 

 

Thank you to every one that sent well wishes to my dog, Summer.   She is still having issues with her balance but she seems in good spirits.  She still wants to go off to exploring scents in the yard and be the center of attention even though she is dizzy, nauseous, looses her balance easily and falls down a lot.    We have our fingers that this all passes soon and she will be back to her usual self.

 

Have a great day!  Thank you for stopping by!
