Hi! This card was made for today's Limited Supply Challenge: Make a Christmas card for a Random Act of Kindness without the use of die cuts and with limited layers.
I usually donate 25 "Children's themed" Christmas/Holiday cards to the local Children's Hospital every year. You see, my brother, when he was a senior in high school, was in an accident, and coma for over 3 months. The accident happened 3 days before Christmas Vacation. It was a HORRIBLE time for our family. I quit my teaching job, and stayed by his side the ENTIRE time. I never left the hospital. Neither did my mother. My oldest, then in 4th grade, kept me company after school and the entire 2 weeks of his vacation. A very kind woman used to bring him Christmas cards. It really made an impression on us. She was thinking about US, and our shared pain. So, I try to make sure the FAMILIES of the sick and injured are given the cards I make.
The images were stamped in cut out. I sponged in Palette Seascape and Reflection Blue for the sky. The snow is MS chunky glitter.

Oh Faith, this is a gorgeous card. Love the adorable image and the chunky glitter and your sponging.... I know that Noah will love it and I also know that all the sick people whose lives you touch at Christmas really appreciate it... You are truly an Angel.....
