Quick card

I swore I'd stay home the rest of the week and get things done and I'm out the door to have lunch with my SIL. She has been working all week and called this morning wanting to have lunch. Now, really, who can resist eating lunch out? I have no will power. The housework and laundry will be here waiting when I get back. That's what's wonderful about retirement - you can put things off until you get around to them.

This is a quick and easy card but just says "Hello" to brighten someone's day. An embossing folder, stamped flower and some ribbon. Gotta go.




Be kind to one another.

Have a good lunch. It really is nice to know that all the laundry, etc. will still be there.

Your card is so nice and elegant. I like it. :-) You are right. It is super idea to go to eat outside. Work will always wait for you. I have already tested, if someone else will make it when I'm out, but without success. :-))
Have a nice day! Hugs, Sonja
