Two weeks ago tonight, I had a call from a friend who had just fallen and had broken her ankle! Ouch! She needed surgery and would be home for a good while. She asked me to come out of retirement and teach her grade one French Immersion class for as long as I could. I would do anything for a good friend and so I have been called back into action. It has been a busy two weeks and I have loved being back with the children. I made her a get well card to boost her spirits. Her favourite colours are pink and purple and she loves wearing a little black dress, even with a broken ankle! I haven't used my Cricut so it was time to get it out of the closet. There have been lots of tears and laughs about how she is going to get around and so the scooter from Sweethearts seemed like the perfect solution. I used Copic markers on her hair, arms and legs as there was too much layering going on. I added Glamour Dust on her shoes, the carrier, her arm, the lights and a gel pen around the heart and tires. She loves bling! I think she is going to like it! I hope it fits the challenge at:

Wow! That would be busy! What a nice way to help a friend! And great card too!
