Cards for Gabrielle!

Happy Monday everyone!

I'm feeling a bit better, I've been legs up all weekend recouping from a nasty cold that I got while on my vacation.... A little bummed out but my hubby said he'll make it up for me, will see. (hehe).
Anyhoo being gone for several days I got back with tons of emails from well wishers and one of my emails I got touched my heart.  Kathy, (owner/illustrator) of Pixie Dust Studio emailed the Pixie DT with the request of cards for a little girl that is very ill with life long illness.   She is in a constant battle for health and is not able to attend school at the moment.   Her high point in her day is walking to the mailbox to get the mail ( if she is well enough to make the walk to the mailbox).    So with this in mind I'm asking if  any of you would love to participate and send her a card here is the info:
BTW Gabrielle is 10 years old.
Her name is - Gabrielle Rothwell
                       46396 Grandview Dr,
                       Perham, MN 56573

This will brighten up her day and put a smile on her face if she goes to pick up the mail and sees that she has a happy mail waiting their for her.   Oh by the way she is very fond of Zebra's and this will lighten her up more if she sees it on her cards too.  So for Gabby I couldn't just do one but made her three cards and hopefully when she receives them it would put a "HUGE" smile on this pretty face of hers.   All my images were from Pixie Dust Studio.


Recipe for all (3) cards:
Glossy accents on the snout, images from PDS, copics,
Shinhan twin markers, bakers twine, spellbinders ovals & scallops,
computer generated sentiment, MS border punch, ribbons
papers from stash.

Thanks for taking a peek!
Hugs to all~
