I cut the strip of Whisper White about 2" x 5" and using Post-It Notes for masking, sponged Island Indigo, Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive. I started at the top and just moved my Post-It Note down but trying to blend the colors together as I sponged. Using my Stamp-a-ma-jig, I stamped the wild flowers from Serene Silhouettes in black ink. Then I adhered the sponged piece and stamped the wild flowers again. Next I stamped the sentiment from God Is Love and tied the Denim Ribbon (just retired) around the card before adhering it to the Night of Navy card. I am sending this card to a friend in my Stamp Club whose son only has a few weeks to live. He lost his eye last year to cancer and it has now spread to his liver and the outcome is grim. I can't imagine losing either of my children, even if most of the time I feel like I have lost my son. But I have to remember that I know where he is and that he is happy so that is a blessing.
On happy news .... my friend, Margaret, (that I have mentioned in my blog many times) - her daughter who lives in Charlotte had a little boy last night. He was delivered via C Section at 8:30 and weighed 8 lb. 6 oz. Both Mom, Dad and baby, Logan Darcy, are doing well! I can't wait to see him.
