A Blessing To Me


Hi Friends!
I'm back today with a very special card that I made for my sweet, sweet Mother-in-law! My DH's parents live over 4 hours away from us and we don't get to see them as often as we would like. But I cherish the times that I get to spend with my MIL and consider her such a great blessing in my life. It just so happened that DH's parents were able to visit us this past weekend and I wanted to create something special just for my MIL, so that she would know that she is thought of VERY often and very much loved and appreciated (love you, Carole)!

For this card I used the Diane Duda--Pure of Heart stamp that Funky Kits is selling and donating 100% of the proceeds to breast cancer research (there are two other stamps in the this fundraiser as well). I paired this sweet stamp with Cosmo Cricket Togetherness paper, one of my fave sentiments from SU and my hand stitching. Oh! and I've also used Tsukineko sheer shimmer mist for the first time! I spritzed it on the image to make that angel shine (I wish it was visible in the picture---such a great product)!

Thanks so much to all of you who have entered my blog candy so far! I love reading all your comments and I'm getting so excited to do the drawing for the winners!! Just a few more weeks :) Have a great day!

Hugs and Blessings,
Kadie
