Thoughtfulness

A friend of the family gave us a housewarming present which I totally needed and loved....bath towels!!!  And I am not being sarcastic, I was pretty ecstatic about this, lol!  Nothing like a soft fluffy one in just the right colors!!

Anyway, now that the holiday weekend is over and life is starting to return to normal, I was able to sit down and make her a thank you card.  I found this adorable image over at Michelle Perkett's PCP group as a thank you for reaching a member milestone.  I absolutely love this girl and thought she looked like she was curtseying all prim and proper to thank someone.

The colors were inspired by the Tuesday Color Challenge this week over at The Outlawz which were:

and by the Wednesday Sketch Challenge this week there which was:
as well as the Bingo Challenge over at MPS this week with the Pearls, Ribbon and Die Cut row:


I hope you'll feel inspired and stop on over to check out all these challenges - they were so much fun to play with!!
