Such a gorgeous poinsettia, and your colouring is amazing. Love the mixed media elements that add so much. <br /><br />Glad Joe got through the procedure but sorry to hear he isn't feeling 100%. You're right, these things happen for a reason. Being at home this year, you'll be able to support your brother more easily. I'm sure it will be tough for him this year.<br /><br />Received your gorgeous card in the mail. LOVE that stenciled tree. So pretty with the silver paste and glitter. I have the larger size, but this size is just wonderful, so I'm adding it to my wish list. :)<br /><br />Merry Christmas to you and your family, Mary. All the best for a happy and healthy 2018!

The important thing right now is Joe's comfort. I'm sorry to hear that he has had this happen. It's terribly painful. You guys just can't catch a break this year and I can only pray that he is 100% soon and next year is a healthy one for both of you!<br /><br />Your card for your amazing 100 yo lady friend is gorgeous!!
