Something Special Just For You!

Happy Wednesday, my sweet friends! I hope you're having a beautiful day. :o)

Today I'm showcasing one of my favorite lines carried at 7 Kids College Fund: Wild Rose Studio! It's no surprise that I fell in love with this line, as their image stamps and papers are sheer whimsy. My card was made for this month's I Feel the Love Project collection, soon to be in the hands of a precious hospitalized child at Santa Monica's UCLA Medical Center.

Cake-sharing bunnies make kiddos smile, right? :o)
The adorable image is Bunny with Cake and the lovely papers are from the Butterfly Glade collection. My adoration for butterflies (and purple) put this pad at the top of my wish list and I was elated when it came back in stock. :o) The little bunny (with his fluffy Flower Soft tail) is surrounded in hearts, created using a Heart Confetti Journaling Tag cut file as a stencil. I used Spun Sugar distress ink to immerse the recipient in the sweetest of love.
The happy sentiment is from My Craft Spot's Stamping All Around Spring stamp set, which I've cut out with the coordinating Tiny Doilies Metal Dies. (Yes, I'm still happy dancing from yesterday's news!) Surrounding it is a collection of flowers from the new Memory Box release Adorable Posies. For an extra dose of healing love, Precious Hearts accent the corner and are centered with heart-shaped rhinestones. The shimmery ribbon is from SEI.

Inside is one of my favorite papers from the collection, ready to flutter into the dear child's heart:

I pray that this little card delivers endless love! :o) Thank you for hopping on by and I wish you a sweet and sparkly day! :o)
