Her name is Kelly Marie. She's the super fun girl over at lawn fawn cards (lawnfawn.blogspot.com) and she just makes me laugh and smile even when I don't feel like it, or frankly, don't want to. In ways, she very much feels like my soul sister. She and I connect on a level I really just can't explain. Kelly is ridiculously gifted in the card-making community, she's a super fun chick, but is also loving and a HUGE inspiration to all those who come in contact with her, too.
Kelly has some health issues. For those who know ME, well, that is something I can identify with all too well. She has been having a rough few days. I wanted to make her a card to let her know really how much she means to me, and hopefully just bring a smile to that really pretty face of hers.
I hope you see this card, Kelly and smile.

There's a lot of supplies that I used to make this card so I'll update tomorrow. I just really wanted to get this card posted so my dear friend, lawn fawn, would see it before the night was through.
Take care, friend, and hope you feel better super soon.
