Hi all! I want to share a card I made for a special 'imaginary' friend from Facebook. I like to call my online friends, 'imaginary' friends. I speak of them and they speak back to me... online, of course... I share almost all with them... but people around me don't ever see them... hence... my 'imaginary' friends. lol
I have an 'imaginary' FB friend who sent me sympathy cards when my mother and brother passed late last year and yesterday, I came home to find a Valentine card from her! I was so touched by it.
To be perfectly honest with you... I'm hanging on by a thread and carrying some dead weight around my ankles so I am not sure how much longer I can hold on. I've not had much mojo since the holidays... duh! lol I'm normally a very optimistic gal... always finding the silver lining around every dark cloud, always happy that my glass is half full... but I think it's OK if I'm on the verge of falling apart right now. I've been holding it together for a very long time and the one year anniversary of my estranged daughter's silence is coming up here in a few days and I'm really feeling it!
Ssooo... I've been a bad 'imaginary' friend and have not said thank you to Karen. Well, I'm hoping this card will set me right with her. It didn't quite come out like I 'Ema-gined' but I have to tell you... I'm VERY pleased on how the coloring came out! So I'll pat myself on my back... since no one is here to do so... and I'll share this with you!

I originally didn't plan to enter this card into any challenges. Like I wrote already... I wasn't too happy with how it came out; however, I so ROCKED that coloring... I mean, really? WHAT else am I gonna say? I colored it! :p lol I have to share! lol ;)
