A Sloth Get-Well Card

Friday, June 5, 2020

I've sent this sloth get-well card to my cousin's husband who had knee surgery last week. I thought it appropriate as I doubt he is moving very fast right now. It could also be a symbolic image for the speed with which this card will probably arrive. I've just started mailing cards to the USA again since our confinement ended. I received a card from a States-side friend recently and I noticed it took 20 days to reach me. If I didn't know how long it would take for cards to travel from France to the USA before (anywhere from one week to three), I really don't know now.

The image and sentiment is from Prettygrafik's Sleepy Sloth digi pack. I noticed in getting the link, that it's on sale right now for only $0.99! Considering there are 8 digis and 4 sentiments, that's a very good buy indeed.

Sloth paper is from the German company Max Bringmann (Folio) Potpourri paper pad. Embellishments are ribbon and some matt dots.

So super cute! Perfect papers and sentiment too! Maybe the mail was just taking your card's sentiment to heart. ;-)
