Cynthia (MrsPeel) update

[carilyne]

Well not really. But I do have permission to say it was a bad fall and her arm is still in a sling. Sarita typed for her tonight. Cynthia asks that we not mention it on Facebook as her grandparents would get worried.
We are making AT C sized cards to send her. Please see the other thread for details.
Keep her in your thoughts and prayers as she is feeling pretty down. Thanks.

Can you link us to the ATC thread?

 

[carilyne]

I can in the morning. Good idea thank you

Thanks for the update, Carrie. If you talk to her or Sarita, please give them my love and let them know they are in my prayers. I added the link to your OP.

Oh, goodness. I'll be praying for her! And I'll try my hand at making a card when I return home. I've never done one!

I will pass the message on.
Thank you for adding the link. I was on my Kindle and it doesn't copy and paste. I appreciate it!!!

You can do it. It's really just a miniature layout. They are really fun. If the size scares you sometimes I'll do a 5" by 7" and then reduce it by half when I'm done. Just watch the size of your fonts.

Thanks! I missed the post before but I will definitely make a card!

 

[ljonezy]

I'll be praying for her!

Lots of prayers from me. Cynthia is such a great person - send her all our love.

Oh no-my thoughts and prayers are with Cynthia! I would totally suck at an ATC card- it would like be all white space with one little bit of paint or word art or something! Not artsy/beautiful like you guys do- but sending her a big ole' hug just the same!

That would be okay. Or just big type saying Sending you a hug. They are so easy. Find a journal card you like shrink 85% and put a button or two on it (or flower) Or if you want to send her a note or regular card PM me and I'll give you my address.

ETA: I looked at your gallery. It's beautiful. You decorate your journal cards in your Pocket layouts. This is about the same thing, just no pocket. Or Paint a card that would be fun actually.
This was my simple demo

perfect @carilyne - I'll give it a try! I just saw the other post - I will put it in that thread!

I'm gonna play along, too. My only tip so far with ATC is to scroll the LO size on my screen down to match the size of a rl card held up to my monitor - that lets me see what will and won't be visible.

Sounds good, it also would help you see if the font size is big enough and how it looks at that size.

Thx for the update. I hope she feels better soon.

 

[ForeverJoy]

Oh gosh! Im just seeing this! How terrible! I hope she is better soon!

 

[RebeccaH]

Oh no! I hate to hear this! I didn't realize she had been hurt. I'll be praying for her recovery for sure!

 

[Cristina]

Just seeing this. I'm so sorry! She's in my prayers!

Send her my love and I will try to get a card done!
