Blessings


My card is for the challenge over at ODBD. This week we are ask to use ribbon, charm and one other kind of embellishment. I used 4 yellow gems in each corner. I stamped the flower part with HeartFelt Creations Open Petal Set and the leaves are with the Single Leaves Set and cut both out with the Perfect Petal Diecuts. The stem is the word stamp from Stampin Up's Wonderful Words II set. I also used the embossing folder D'vine Swirl. Card stock is from SU also. That's about it. Not thinking very clear, we did not get a good report form the doctor this morning. He is putting Bill on Oxygen 24-7 which means he will lose his job and stay home. It's killing him and don't think it has sunk in with me yet. A lot to process. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes, it does mean so much to us. Keep praying for us, that's all we can do right now. Thanks for listening......

Not a good report but you must keep your spirits up, my friend. Just remember that when God closes a door, he opens a window. I am here if you need to vent or chat. Please call when you are ready.
I love the falling petals on the flower. It's beautiful!
