BIRTHDAY CARD FOR A FRIEND


The friend who received this card was certainly meant to be in my life.  When both of us were in high school in different schools, we were both entered into a contest involving our high school bands but never met.  After graduating we went to the same business school but never met while we were there.  Something brought us together when we both moved back to our home territory and we ended up as roommates.  It's funny how sometimes "fate" brings people together.  

We remained in touch through Christmas cards each year but Facebook has made it easier to stay up to date with each other.  We're only about 35 miles apart but busy lives just never seemed to get us together but we are going to meet for lunch one of these days.

Another girl who I never met at the same contest or business school also became a roommate.   All three of us graduated in the same year from high school in different communities but had the same life experiences and ended up as roommates.  What are the odds? 

The card was made using SU designer paper.  I "fussy cut" the two individual little flowers and leaves  from the paper and then added them to the die cut circle.

Thank you for coming by today!

Vicki, I love this paper. Cutting the two flowers out was a clever idea.

Cool story, Vicki - like you said, what are the odds?? I love that dp!

Originally I posted this card with just the background pieces and I may have posted this card again after adding the leaves and sentiment.  ...
