Praying for Delia

This morning I finally got caught up on my blog reading. I love to read certain blogs and hadn't had alot of computer time.
This morning I visited Dustin Pike's blog and read about his Cards for Delia project. If you click on the link, you can read all about it. Being  a Mom this story just broke my heart. I am praying for Delia's healing, God makes miracles everyday!!! And also praying for Delia's family, that God will give them strength and faith.
Here is my card, using Dustin's cute Owl Images. I hope it brings a smile to her face.
I made up a sentiment, hoping it will make Delia smile.
The outside says: "If I could paint you a picture..."
Inside says: "It would be a miracle, cause I can't even draw!"
My own kids would say, "Mom, this is so corny!" But I'm a Mom, so I have permission to be corny!
I really hope it cheers her up!!!

Card Details: Digi Image: Dustin Pike, Paper: Basic Grey, Circles: Cuttlebug, Sentiment: Microsoft Word
