Delightful Wishes for a Friend

 I have a friend who is going through a very difficult time.  It's not always easy to think of just the right thing to say, but "thinking of you" is always my go-to for these trying times.

I pulled out some cheery yellow and hope this makes her feel a bit of sunshine:


This card could also be filed under my category of "What's on the Desk?"  If you've followed me for awhile, you know that every now and then I rummage through a box of misfit pieces to give new life to these die cuts, labels, or scraps that I had planned to use on other projects, but didn't.  

The white frame and the arch in the center are two of those pieces.  


I knew I wanted to use yellow.  So I first got out my Floral Delight DSP and chose the Daffodil Delight gingham paper, cutting it to 4-1/8"x 5-3/8".  The Basic White frame (cut with Deckled Rectangle dies) fit over the top perfectly.


Then the arch - I stamped one of the floral stamps from Delightful Wishes (3-step stampin'!) on the front, but I needed a greeting.  I chose "thinking of you" from the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set, and then cut it with the coordinating dies.  Just perfect!  And mounted over a little Daffodil Delight ribbon - LOVE!


What's your go-to greeting for difficult times?
