Today's card is for the Hope You Can Cling to Challenge HYCCT1408 My Hero...
My Hero was my grandmother. She was such a wonderful, gentle, beautiful lady that fought hard against breast cancer and lost and I miss her every day.
She collected birds. When I was growing up, every time I saw a bird, I thought she needed to have it. So she amassed quite a collection over the years and she loved everyone. Now anytime I see a bird, I smile and think about her.

Oh, this is just so incredibly lovely - what a fabulous ADFD bird image and I love that you coloured it blue - bluebirds just seem to radiate happiness!
Pretty stripes as a bg too. All in all, it's beautiful tribute for your dear Grandmother - thanks so much for sharing your card and your hero story for this challenge!

Beautiful card! Lovely image, coloring and layout. Wonderful tribute to your grandmother! My grandmother had a collection of bird figurines. When she passed away I was given 2 of them. They make me smile and think of my her too.
