Feel Better Soon! FMS 59



We all feel a bit green now and then - not fun at all!  When my daughter was about 4 she got sick one night.  After a while her stomach settled and I got her back to sleep.  I put down clean beach towels making a path from her bed, across the hall and into the bathroom - trying to save the carpet just in case!  Sure enough an hour later I heard her hollering for me.  I met her at the bathroom door where she was crying and saying  "Mom there were clean towels in my way and I had to take a new path from the other side of my bed to the bathroom. But I didn't get the towels dirty!"  Oh I found that path - no problem!  

Have a fun Halloween and don't eat too much candy ;)

Good morning, Linda: What a cute story and what a very thoughtful little girl you had, even if she left you a new path clearly marked to the bathroom.
This card is really fabulous, simple and I'm sure, quick to make. Thanks for sharing it.
This picture of your little granddaughter is beyond adorable. We can all tell what a proud grandma you are. Enjoy this little Angel.
Maria.

Oh no! First, I LOVE your card...how clever to use that little green apple (hmm, I am singing a song now) along with the red ones for your focal point! Adorable! My stepson once got sick over the side of the bed, on to the carpet, and said, "Le, I didn't mess up the bedspread"! Oh, if only he HAD messed it up...so much easier to clean than the carpet!
Your little pumpkin is adorable too!

Cuuuute card, love that little apple on its side! And the baby! Can we talk about utter cuteness?? She's just precious, Linda. You must be floating on cloud nine.

I laughed at your story, and it reminds me of when my oldest was little. She threw up a lot back then, from her crib. We'd find it EVERYwhere in her room. Quite honestly, I don't know how she managed to get it to go so far!

Linda, You are just too clever with the green, tilted apple. I love the fresh look and colors of this card. As, always, your stories are just as fabulous as your creative work!

Well, isn't that green apple just the sweetest thing! And what a funny story. I'm sure some day Erin will be putting down her own towel path to the bathroom!

What a beautiful card Linda! I love those little apples! What a great idea to add a green one! I love those colours and of course the added pearls!!! Your granddaughter is beautiful!!! I love that sleeper!

Love it! The green tilted apple is just the cutest idea. Great take on Cindy's sketch!

Jen Timko said...

Oh my gracious...that little cutey simply distracted me from your card (which is hard to do, frankly). How adorable is that little outfit??!! This is the perfect card for someone who is a little "green". Such a funny story (now...I know it was probably much less funny at the moment).

Oh Linda I just love this card, that little green apple ...perfect!

But how gorgeous is your sweet lil miss ... she is adorable in her first Halloween outfit ... love it!
So great to have you back too!

All you people with your adorable babies make it so hard to concentrate on the card! The picture of your granddaughter is so cute. She's getting more features so fast! Her outfit is so cute, too. Like she could scare anyone with that "BOO!". :) Love your card. Perfect timing (and great story) for a get well card with all the candy!
