Today I'm sharing my DT card for Inkspirational Challenge #338
I used 2 sentiments as the 'fortune' in the two die cut fortune cookies.
I made this card for a friend who lost her 34 yr old youngest daughter a few weeks ago. She had no health issues but died in her sleep from a pulmonary embolism.
I've been sending encouragement cards to my friend every week since, as she comes to terms with this sudden terrible loss.
So please join us and create a card with at least 2 sentiments on it! You'll find creative inspiration from the rest of the Ink team as well as Mr. Linky over at the Inkspirational Blog!
This challenge ends on April 11!
FYI - I had surgery on my right shoulder for a torn rotator cuff on March 26th and I'm 6 weeks in a sling so can't stamp or leave lengthy comments on your blogs for a bit! I've made all my DT posts for the next two months ahead of time so you will see me on the blog!
