Sending Hugs

Happy Friday!!!  It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog.  This week, the challenge is: Friends and Family

Here is my card for your inspiration:

My best friend's father passed away just about a year ago.  I made her this card to send to her on the anniversary of his passing to remind her that she's not alone and offering encouragement and support.  

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you will hop over to the Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created.
