I know an incredible family from church. They are very blessed financially, yet the father uses his time to run a local food bank as a full-time "volunteer". They are also very busy keeping up with their five young children (including a set of triplets!). But no one's life is ever as easy as it may look...the mother has just been diagnosed with breast cancer and has undergone a double mastectomy. My heart and my prayers go out to this family.
I created this simple little card to let them know that people care and are praying...
This is definitely not a great photo - but I wanted to keep the shadows on the card to highlight the subtle embossing.
I used the sketch from retrosketches and, as I wanted to keep it cheerful, I played along with the CAS-ual Fridays challenge to use bling.
- Stamps: unknown "Hope"
- Paper: white
- Ink: black
- Accessories: Cuttlebug large border embossing folder (done one way, then flipped and embossed the other way), bird and swirl stickers (they say "White Blossom" which I have never heard of, but I found them at one of the big box stores - there's a sheet of the birds and another sheet of the swirls), Quickutz tag, crochet thread
