QFTD145, CC#17 Christmas Cardinal

This week's Queen for the Day challenge was to go back through & see who was the Queen for the Day closest to our birthday.  JenMarie was the Queen who was closest to my birthday, so I chose a card of hers to CASE.

HYCCT1213 Hope is the Thing

I made this for bfinly's HYCCT1213 Hope is the Thing challenge using Emily Dickinson's poem: Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all.

I also made one to send to a family friend who loves cardinals.  This will be the Christmas card I send to her.  (Mom, are you reading this???!  ;)  )  I got to thinking about how long we've known them & they were in a church my parents pastored in 1977.   I remember their den & all of the Tupperware stuff they had, because she was a Tupperware lady.  She was in our home recently & she told me that she keeps every single card that my Mom & I send her... YIKES!!!  I better start keeping track so I don't send her a duplicate!
