Mid Way January Inspiration
'Anything Goes'
or our optional theme-
Something New
I was browsing over at 123 Stitch several weeks ago...and a bunch of new Penny Black stamps fell into my shopping cart. I loved the cuddly bears and the stamp sets I bought were more 'words of encouragement' type sets. I just didn't have any stamps like them.
And then it happened-
(I don't normally put personal information on my blog-I know you are here for crafting...)
I needed to make a card like this...I need lots of them. A dear family member has been diagnosed with an extremely serious form of Leukemia. My heart is breaking just thinking of the fight she has ahead of her. I am asking if you could all keep her in your thoughts and prayers, I would be forever grateful.
My card today used a couple of my new stamps from 123 Stitch and some very pretty MME paper. I colored with copics and paper pieced the little cushion the bears are sitting on.
Stamps used:
Bear Cuddle
and
Strength Mini
I am sharing with the following challenges

Love how you've colored these sweet bears, Sue! Wonderful detail there! The sentiment is perfect for letting someone know you care. I pray your family member will feel God's love and strength while fighting this dreaded disease.
Cute card! Sending prayers for your friend.

Such a sweet card! Great Sentiment and I hope you Family Member gets all the help she needs. Thanks for playing along with us at Crafty Animals. Lisa DT
I can't image a more perfect image or sediment for someone facing such a tough challenge, Sue. Your coloring is fabulous and I love the heart pp background! May we know her first name for our prayers, please? If you think it's not too intrusive, I'd love her address to send her a card myself. Hugs, Darnell
Beautiful and realistic coloring of those bears, Sue, and it looks like a very nice sentiment set. I'm so sorry that you no sooner bought it than you find you'll be using it often for such a close family member. Life throws some challenging curves. Sending love and hugs.
Fabulous card Sue super cute...
Hugs Sylvie xx
