*Great* Aunt Chrissy

Aunt Chrissy isn't really my aunt... she is my mom's best friend and we have always just called her "Aunt Chrissy." She is horribly hilarious and uses vulgar language which I absolutely adore in her. Whenever I'm with her, my sides hurt from laughing and I'm completely exhausted from all her funny stories!
We were recently together at my dad's retirement party and again, she had me in hysterics! We snuck off to a room by ourselves and told one funny story after the next. We had a ball catching up because we just don't see each other enough.
So, I had this picture of us taken that night. I thought it was cute and wanted to send her a copy. I also wanted to make it a little special. I pulled out my handy dandy Xyron machine and made it into a refrigerator magnet! I decorated the picture with patterned paper and rub-ons, and shoved it through my Xyron. Lastly, I added my handmade button with some ribbon. Aunt Chrissy got the package yesterday and called me today to tell me she loved it. We had a few more laughs on the phone before saying good-bye. She is the best...
