This is my card entry for the CAS177 challenge using Navy, Olive, and White. Note: Indigo blue and Olive were used on the airplane. Nigh of Navy for the mat panel.
We are officially on "Baby Watch" now. Nine days and counting! We leave Phoenix as parents and return as grandparents. A major life event. One that we were unsure we'd ever know. Emotions are running high as I'm sure most of you might imagine. Please keep our family in your prayers.
Try as I might (and probably to hard) I was having a difficult time coming up with a clean and simple design. This morning while I was cleaning up some stamps I came across the sentiment used on this card. And finally the moment of clarity - the aha moment hit! Our little grandson is a prefect gift from God above. Flying right into our hearts.
I hope you enjoy this little offering. Come visit me on my blog while I'm away. I'll be posting photographs and some writing pieces while I'm back east.
Hugs to all,
Susie ~

This card is fantastic! I love that you added the little head in the airplane! This is so sweet! 2 years later, it's late to say "congrats" to be new grandparents *hee hee* but I'm happy for you!
