Through the Eyes of a Child

Hello and happy Saturday.

Today I'm sharing a card that I wish I didn't have to make.

My sister has friends whose son has Cancer and is failing right now.  They don't think that he'll make it through the weekend.  She asked me for a card ahead of time so that she'd have it the moment she needs it.  She'd gladly put it through a shredder if a miracle happens though.

I've used two verses from I Brake for Stamps on my card.

On the front I used

Eyes of a Child

This card was so difficult to make.  I picked out paper and put it away three times because it didn't seem right.  I had the verse stamped and matte cut in a different color and tossed them.  It's not easy to be inspired when you need a card for this reason.

On the inside I used
With Sympathy

The little boy's name is Cooper which is why I put the C in the heart.

Here's a close up of the beautiful verse...

Babies are a bit of stardust...

Hello and happy Saturday!

I absolutely love how this card turned out.  I have a co-worker who is pregnant.  We had her shower yesterday and this is the card that I gave her with her gift.  I've used 3 different stamps from I Brake For Stamps.

The first is the main image and it's called BABY WITH RATTLE.  I love this image because it could be made to look very modern or very vintage.  Whichever you prefer.  I'm a little of both.

The verse is called STARDUST.

Isn't she so sweet?  ("she" could just as easily be a boy too) That verse is so adorable too.

The verse on the inside is called EYES OF A CHILD.

I recently attended a fundraiser for our school district and I bid on and won a basket with a handmade baby blanket, onesie, bib, hat, rattle and books.  They were a neutral green and yellow.  We now know that the woman is having a girl so I tried to make the card girl oriented with the green accents to match the gift.
