Missing You!

By now most of you know that one of my daughter's, with her husband, has moved to West Virginia where he was transferred due to Coast Guard advancement and job assignment.  We miss them each and every day and are anxious for them to return to Washington after his duty tour, which is about a year and one-half away :-). . .but we shall persevere.  I am hoping to make a trip back to visit maybe in early Fall this year.


The other day I was feeling a bit down thinking about how far away my daughter is, so I decided to make her a little card.  I had snapped a picture of a card while visiting in California at my favorite scrapbooking store in Chico, California ~ Paradise Scrapbook Boutique.  I purchased some of the crocheted flower border while there, thinking I would case this card.  So, I thank PSB for the lovely idea.  My card really is almost identical, except I have added a few more pearls, my flower button is smaller, my tag is longer and I have added an additional green mat layer, which I think brings out the color in the map.  I'm sending it to Michele so she knows we are always thinking about them and miss them a lot.
