For a friend

Sometimes in life you are lucky enough to find someone who you can be yourself around, and talk to like no one else!  After I lost my other half, Nick, in 2010, a very good friend was there for me more than anyone else... of course a lot of my friends were there for me too, but this friend didn't find it as hard to listen to me, or talk to me after what happened, which made it easier for me in a way! 

Sadly, for a number of reasons; my move to Cambridge for a large part of the week being the main one, he has since become very distant.  It's his birthday today so I just wanted to let him know that I am thinking of him...

It's almost an exact CASE of a card I created earlier this month (see here) using the 'dragonfly' from the Natures Nest stamp set, but instead I have used the 'peacock feather' inked in Island Indigo and the base card is Tempting Turquoise.

It's the sentiment inside that is the important part, from the Perfect Pairs stamp set I've stamped 'I'm here for you'.  I just love those sentiments, even more than the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, but they don't yet have their own punch ;).
