I made this card to honor my
dear friend Karen Mann, who lives and facilitates SoulCollage^® in Melbourne, Australia! Karen and I corresponded via email and phone for over a year before I met her last summer at our KaleidoSoul Retreat at the Spirit Fire Retreat Center in Massachusetts.  It is always amazing to me, miraculous even, how the internet can build and forge such bright and beautiful friendships.

Who are you? I am the one who dances the dance of
soul and art with women around the world through SoulCollage.  I am the
one who leads and follows (in the dance that is SoulCollage) at the
same time.  I am the one who is building a colorful, imaginative bridge
between many parts of the world with my SoulCollage^® work.

What do you have to give me? I give you color and imagination and
a partner for your own SoulCollage^® dance.  I give you a full, bright
rainbow of hope that also is a bridge between our worlds.  I give you
encouragement and support and friendship and strength for your journey.

And if that wasn’t enough… I drew this card in one of my Daily Readings only a few days after I created it!  Here is what the card said to me then:

I am the one who is your friend and even though I live far away, on the other side of the world, I am always close to you in your heart.  It is the imaginative, intuitive world of SoulCollage^® that connects us.
