OLW 67 Thoughtsgiving.

Olw 67 is at Jennifers blog this week and she has challenged us to make a card for someone who is struggling with a battle and Jennifer said

This week, the challenge is to make and send/deliver a “Thinking of You” card to someone who is struggling with any kind of battle. I would also like all participants to make a five dollar (or more!) donation to the cancer research/cause of their choice.

Thanks go to Jennifer for prompting me to act, sometimes we need a small push:0) My donation went to  Breast Cancer Care , who provide help and support.

I made a card for a friend who is coping with her battle right now and she is very brave:0)





I used an Impression Obsession Cover a Card stamp and I selectively inked just a roundel from the design.
