u r so sweet


Outside of their births, only one time did my babies have to experience a hospital visit. Thankfully, it only amounted to a lot of eaten gum. Breaks my heart to think of all the children that spend more time in a hospital than in their homes.


Winter is having a card drive for the children of St. Jude in which you can read about here, and TiffanyDoodles is one of the sponsors. Today there is a mini blog hop featuring TiffanyDoodles Valentine's images, please stop by Tiffany, Kim, Collette and Jeannie's blogs!

This card couldn't have been more simple to make. I printed out one of the amazing Strawberry Hearts Digi Papers, rounded the edges, added some sticker sentiments and a ribbon tab (I'm into that kick again) and mounted it to the card base with foam adhesive.

    I'm with you about hospitals. Ugh. I get the heebie jeebies just being near one. Not my thing. And should I ever birth my own child, it will NOT happen in one of those places! (although I know they can do good as well)
    Your card looks so delectable. And your ribbon tab is the perfect touch. What a great cause!

    Love the graphic punch of this card, down to the ribbon tab!
    I will definitely be checking out the card drive. I don't know how those brave little people endure what they do. It's truly heartbreaking.
