Hello, precious friends! I have some wonderful news: I will begin sprinkling your blogs with love today, for which I am grateful! I dearly miss you and am thankful for your endless love and prayers during tribulation. ♥︎
I'm posting on the Wild Orchid Crafts blog today, sharing some sweet and sparkly inspiration. ♥︎ This is also my DT contribution for Deep Ocean, where we are playing with a fun Bingo Board! This card is to bring nature's beauty to a cancer warrior who is unable to enjoy the outdoors.

Amongst my pink and white flowers are pops of sunshine with pastel yellow cherry blossoms and mini sweetheart blossoms. I couldn't resist using the lovely organza rose trimming, as it pairs so beautifully with LemonCraft's Tiny Miracles collection. ♥︎ Plus, it's just gorgeous!
Atop my crackled Wycinanka birdhouses are sparkling embellishments: Rhinestone flowers with diamond centers. They are so darling that I sprinkled a few extras throughout my card. ♥︎ WOC pearls serve as my birdhouse hangers and also line the sentiment nestled within the bouquet. For pretty texture, I lined the back of the birdhouse openings with vintage seam binding.
My card base and floral frame are from Sue Wilson's Delicate Garden die set. The delightful birdies are from Resting Birds by Memory Box. How dreamy it is to play with Wild Orchid Crafts goodies.... I pray it delivers healing love, engulfing her in everything beautiful. Thank you for visiting and I wish you a blessed day. ♥︎

ReplyDeleteIt makes me sad your pain is keeping you from what you love to do--making cards for these cancer warriors, but I'm so happy to see you were able to make this one and for taking the time to share it with us, too. Your work is so inspiring and your posts uplifting! Thank you for that, my friend! You're a gem!
