I am not Irish so I was sort of glad to see the challenge was not green today...What a fun twist to do a "three's challenge for WT575.
Today ODBD is celebrating it's 8th Anniversary and having a special release dedicated to my very dear friend and design team sister, Grace Nywening. Grace has been going through treatments for Breast cancer. Anyone who knows Grace and her current journey, knows that Grace's faith in God has carried through the rough times she has been going through. The sentiments and verses for today's Anniversary release were chosen by Grace. These are sentiments and verse which have brought her comfort that she also believes will comfort people going through an extended or terminal illness. I would like to dedicate this card to Grace, who has shared so many joys and sorrows with me over the years. She has always been there to cry, laugh and pray for me. My only hope is that not only that God will heal her but that she knows how near and dear to my heart she is!! Her faith and her positive outlook even during her bout with cancer and the other struggles she has faced in her life amaze me. Love you Grace!!
The card I am sharing uses three colors: Coastal Blue, Baja Breeze and white for Sabrina's WT575 challenge.
Thanks for a fun challenge, Sabrina. Thanks for looking!

I'm glad that you like the challenge, Chris - I tried to choose something that would give a nod to to the day but still be wide open! This is so peaceful and restful in your blues - though I'm sure it would have been equally tranquil feeling in greens. I was very moved to read about the ODBD annivesary release - and if I have spare money come my birthday, this is the set I will treat myself to.
