for a friend!

well today i am showing a card i made for a friend ,who is going through a very emotional time at the moment and needs all the hugs she and her boys can get!
used the fab sketch on "stamp with sarah kay", used picnics of daisies, sarah kay stamp, quickutz nestling flower dies, daisybucket and studio stamps. paper from my stash.
also deena , on a nessessary creativity http://acreativeneed.wordpress.com/ has asked us crafters to make a card to show your support for someone , with a chance of winning some blog candy. ~what a great idea!!
sorry i`ve not been around much , but the boys seem to need all my attention , so very little crafting time , and aaron seems to be on the computer all day (if he could)!! ~so i hope to catch up with everyone very soon.
hope you are all having fun this summer , and having the chance to be creative. byeeeeeeeeeeeee xx

Great card Vanessa. Know what you mean about having no time to craft - like having the children around but will like it when they are both at school, so I'll have a bit of me time!!! - that's sure not going to happen.

Hi Vanessa! Gorgeous card!! I love the layout and the fantastic coloring on the image! Thanks for joining in my support challenge. Your friend will love this and I'm sure it will be much appreciated! I know what you mean about being busy...my 2 boys seem to need a lot of attention too this summer, and crafting time for me goes late into the night! ;)

This is so gorgeous Nessy and am sure your friend will really appreciate you thinking of her. Know what you mean too about finding time. I used to do my crafting at night but my 3 year old's sleep pattern is all over the place and she has been known to be up with me past 11pm! Big Hugs, Nikki x

Lovely card, like the papers together. And love the image. Have you cut off a bit? Is it from a full length stamp? Looks really good like this. I'm sure your friend will love it. Big hugs Vicki oxo'x
