“At the end of life, what really matters is not what we bought but what we built; not what we got but what we shared; not our competence but our character; and not our success, but our significance. Live a life that matters. Live a life of love.”

Hi Everyone!
Today I am sharing a special card I made for a special
person who recently retired from an amazing career as a teacher in the medical
field.
This is a Bendi card. Every tutorial I had or could find was
for an A2 size card so not only is this the first time I’ve made this style of
card, I also had to do math (Blech!) to change the sizing to a 5 x 7 card.
Sadly, I also made a gift box to go along with the card, but
I forgot to take pictures of that.
This picture is of the card folded into the diorama position
This picture shows the inside of the card
