One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

January 2013 Blog Hop Challenge

The January Blog Hop is all about BLACK....for the background. It is stunning and really makes the other colors pop.  My daughter, with cancer, needed a card for a lady who has stage 4 ovarian cancer...she selected this one to mail off to her.  Today she goes in for her 6th and we hope final chemo treatment, she has been running a fever the last several days.  She felt it broke yesterday, so we are hoping as is she, that she can have this final treatment.  Then we wait for a month to have the PET scan and see if they can pronounce her in remission!

Stamps:  PTI The Sweet Life, Heart 2 Heart # 10
Papaer:  PTI Black, melon berry
Ink:  versamark, memento black, melon berry, hibiscus burst, raspberry fizz, simply chartreuse, ripe avocado

Love yourncaed, wondering how you got the pocodot background. Hope your daughter does well. Out prayers are with you. We have a year old niece that is going through chemo...no easy process to say the least.
