Okay, so I'm a little behind on things. I just want to let you know that there will not be a new challenge for this week. I know very sad. But I want to have the slide show up and running when I do the next challenge. So if you happen not to get a chance to play along with the Wishes Challenge, you still have another week.

Purple Wishes~

First, I want to thank everyone who sent their get well wishes yesterday. That is super sweet of all of you!

I have 3 different ones to share, using all of the same supplies. Now it wasn't planned that way. The plan was to make one card 3 times, and I had everything worked out in my mind. You name it, it was in there waiting to come out. But no, my mojo just didn't work. When I sat down to do the card, it WOULDN'T come out right. While I do like parts of each card, it just isn't the same as the one I wanted. Oh well!
