Sweet surprise in the mail!

I received this beautiful belated Birthday card in the mail from my sweet blogging friend Gerri who writes a wonderful blog called It's all Treasure.   Thank you Gerri, this really cheered me up, and I really needed that too, I have been feeling a bit down, getting sciatica right now stinks!  My family needs my help installing the floors and I am more of a burden than a help right now.  
I love all the beautiful detail on this card, I told her it really is much more beautiful IRL than on the blog.  I love how she uses her Stickles, framing adding jewelry and accents everywhere!  
Be sure to stop by Gerri's blog and see the her work and and watch a video Etsy made for Etsy TV featuring her also talented husband John (Classic Wrecks) work.  They are both so talented.   Thanks again Gerri, your card really made my day!

    How sweet of your friend, Diane to cheer you up... am so sad to know that your pain is not getting any better. But please don't think that you are a burden on your family... you are such a sweet person, you could be anything BUT that.
    I will keep you in my loving thoughts.

    Diane, what a sweet sweet card, so sad to hear your pain is not better, I know from first hand experience, if you don't just stop and let it heal it will prolong all the symptoms, your family loves you, the floor will get done so slow down and heal dear one, hugs
