I made this card last week for the CAS-Friday's 'Jest for the Pun of It', but had to leave town abruptly due to my mom's failing health, and never got to post it.
Thank you to everyone who has offered prayers, good thoughts, well wishes and sent cards for my mom. She remains in critical condition, but we continue to remain optimistic that she will pull through.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Hero Arts Big Eyes Owl, sentiment from unknown set in my stash
Paper: Kraft, Pure Poppy
Other: Wood Grain IP, SU punch for branches, clear dome stickers from my stash for the eyes
Thanks for Visiting
Joyce,
