Hi, all - I love it that you're here!
So here's the card I made for the April Card Chain Challenge. Being a tad bit absent-minded, I suspect that I didn't follow the parameters of my own challenge - lol! But I like to think that encouraging someone is a friendly thing to do and that being friendly is almost like celebrating someone as a friend, right?
(Somebody agree with me already!)

My retreat roomie, Kelly Booth, turned me on to these lovely twinkly stickers that come as small as the end of your pen! They are a terrific substitute for gems and make for a nice flat card for mailing purposes. They are also incredibly inexpensive, so what's not to love?! Get 'em here. Get the bigger ones (on the borders of my card) here.
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

Me likey. It's blue, always a good start LOL. I like that you have just a little bit of pattern peeking out on your base layer and then the focus is so lovely and clean. I think we send a card and get a card and anyone would be pleased to have this drop in their mail box. Anyway, it's always good to test the boundaries. Hugz

Really lovely....& near enough is good enough, I reckon....seeing as this month I accidentally used last month's colours....then decided mine was close enough to a friendship card too:) Oh, how RELIEVED I am that you've done something similar!!! Those little stars are gorgeous & LOOOVE the blue 'wash':):)

Blue and sparkly?!?! I'm sold! I just came across this card (yes, I am writing my post for tomorrow now. Yes, I know I waited until the last second - I always do) ~ but I truly love this card - love the sentiment, love the design, just love it! Hugs, Christi
