Back to RED.........and check the CBC below too!

What a day! I have a terrible head cold, and started the morning with a mammogram. How awful is that???? To make myself feel better, I made a RED card today........I know you have been wondering when I would come back to RED!

The SC today uses a layout by my GF jojot (Joanne!), and since her fav colors are RED, black, and white, I also did this for her. Hi Joanne!!

Now there is a story with this card............ My DH has a cousin who couldn't pronounce pussywillow. Of course he can now, but not when he was little. I just had to have this stamp set when I saw the flowers because I had no pussywillows. In our house we call them POCK-A-LULUs and think of Bobby every time!! (As an Attorney in Washington DC, I'm sure he wouldn't want to reminded, but we think it's very funny/cute). That's my story. I'm going to spend this dark and dreary day with a cup of tea, continue my diet, and read. I NEED to feel better!!

A really beautiful card, I love the clean look of the image panel and all that RED. Hope you're feeling better soon, after tucking yourself up with tea and a good book. I love pussywillow too, I can almost feel the soft silkiness when I see pictures of them.
