I'm joining a wonderful group of humans on Instagram today, starting at 11 am EST. We have a friend who needs plenty of positive vibes, and well-wishes as he is faced with some pretty serious health issues. Andy Granick, I don't know you well, but it is my prayer that we have many, many years to change that!
If you are an Instagram-er, watch for #hugsforandy2021 - and thank you, for Hopping by, if you can! Friends, and blogging friends, are the best! You'll find me there @mfergu01
Hey! guys like flowers, too! I've paired this gorgeous Petal Perfection
from The Stamp Market with a greeting from Pinkfresh Studio's Perfect Sentiments, and a gorgeous stencil from The Greetery called Berry Branch [thank you, Marcia!]
If you look closely, you'll find a trio of Pinkfresh Studio Espresso jewels tucked in for good measure - I'm so happy these are sold in individual colors now!
Here are all the wonderful Catherine Pooler inks I've used today:
I'll leave you now, with a hope that all of us stays healthy, and kind!
