So here is a card I made for my sister-in-law who has just recently had 2 surgeries in the past few weeks.   For my followers, you may recall that she has had numerous hip surgeries.  Well, this last surgery at the end of July ended up getting infected within 2 weeks.  So, they had to go back in and clean it out.  Well, it got infected again.  It is a very bad Staph infection this time - not MRSA.  But, Staph infections can take a very long time to clear up too so it's another long wait.  They are hoping they don't have to go back in to take out the metal appliances.  Usually it is done but in her case, they are not sure how many more surgeries her body can handle.  So, she need lots of prayers.  If you are interested in sending a card to her, here is her address:
Regina Link
308 41st Ave. Place NW
Hickory, NC 28601
If you think it is silly to send cards to someone you don't even know....well, you are wrong!  I have been doing it for years and have actually gotten thank you notes back from a few saying how much they appreciated getting a card!  And I know my sister-in-law appreciates them.  This is the only sunshine in her life right now and it means the world to her.  
SO...this is a card with October Afternoon papers that I SO love.  The stamps are by StampinBella.  The edging is a die by Cherry Lynn Designs that is supposed to be used to make a flower.  Such a fun card!  Have a fun day!
