Thoughts of Britain with Memory Box




 I just have a quick post for you today....
I am gettting ready for all of the 'doings' over at

Hopefully as I write this, it will make sense.
I am listening to an NPR interview with
Ricky Gervais, the British comedian and
creator of the original 'The Office'
series from Great Britain.
I think the guy is not only hysterical,
but really intelligent with so much of 
his humor and in his interviews.
Funny guy.


So, my bestie Sarah, who is also from the UK
has been away for a couple of days with Sue Roddis
doing a fabulous workshop with Dina Wakley.

Although we live an ocean apart, when she is even
further away from her home in Cheshire,
I really, really miss her.
So I made this card for her.

 
You may recognize the fabulous vine border stamp from
Memory Box.  I stamped the vine in Momento Ink in
'London Fog' (no coincidence with the British-theme here).
Then used VersaMagic in 'Agean Blue' for the flowers.
The sentiment is a $1 wood mount from Hampton Arts.
The rick-rack is from Debbie Mumm
The flower from Prima
The rhinestone is Martha's.

Hope you are having a fab time, my friend...
