Two Sisters

Do you ever have certain stamp sets that you just can't part with? i do, and lots of them. This stamp set, Seaside Sketches, has been one of my all time favorites, along with all of the "sketches" sets. There's just something about them that says "peace, solitude, and contentment" to me. i know i could always use more of that in my life.

Well, when i saw the color challenge at Colour Q this week, i immediately thought, "these are colors that i would not normally choose to put together," but that's what makes it a challenge, right? My next thought was, "what do these colors remind me of?" Nature, outdoors, sunny skies and green grass. So that's where this card came from.

i just love these two little girls, hand in hand. It reminds me of my sister and myself when we were little. She, being the big sister, always leading me around and telling me what to do. She is my very best friend today, and i am so glad to have been blesssed with a sister. We share an awful lot together. The good, the bad, and the ugly, and she always loves me.

Just the other day, i had to text her because it was finally official. i found my first gray hair!!! It was devastating to me (but in a funny sort of way), and she texted me back, "i've been waiting for this day--ha ha!" Only a sister could get by with laughing.

So, i think i will send her this card just to say thank you for being my friend...always.
Love ya, Julie!
