Nitey Nite Pink Bear

I recently heard from another one of my heart transplant friends. She and I “met” through a Congestive Heart Failure message board. She had been listed for heart transplant 6 weeks before I was. We emailed, usually several times a day, until long after she and I had received our transplants. Through a bit of bad luck and computer crashes (both of us), we lost touch. She has asked me to make some cards for her to give to the people that have helped her through her illness and recovery. I am so happy to do that since I have become addicted to card making!!! This is the first that I will be sending to her. I’m also going to go through the ones I have lying around and send some of those to her.

I used a free digi stamp from Dustin Pike. Isn’t this cute!!! He draws wonderful images and gives one away every Wednesday on his blog. As usual, I used water color pencils to paint the image. Everything else came from my stash.

I also decorated the inside of the card.

I’ll be submitting this card to the Stamp Something challenge which is to make a pink Birthday card. Also, My Time to Craft’s challenge was to make a kid’s card.for a kid.

I used the sketch from a new challenge blog, Midnight Madness. I hate to tell everyone, but I will because you are my friends! For the next three challenges you can enter up to three cards for each challenge. For each of your entries, up to nine, you will have your name put in the hat for a drawing for a $100 gift certificate for Stampin’ Up goodies. But DON’T go check it out because I have had my eye on a couple of Stampin’ Up stamps for a while now.

By the way, you’ll probably be seeing this sketch a couple of more times.

Blessings,

Christine
