1. I made this card for a 5 year old for Christmas whose name is Hannah. Hannah has a rare brain tumor and is dying. She is in week 7 of the last 12 weeks of her life.
2. Hannah can't do much, can't play with toys, is pretty much bed ridden. Hannah's mother died of breast cancer 2 years ago.
3. Hannah gets enjoyment out of having her grandma read her the cards she has received. Her room is filled with cards.
4. This will be Hannah's last Christmas. When asked what she wanted for Christmas, she said I would like to see how many cards I can get.
5. If you would like to read more about Hannah's story and send her a card here is the information :
I think this Basic Gray paper makes such a happy little card! I love the colors and the pattern! I think I am turning into a Basic Gray nut! This Urban Prairie Designer Paper as well as this cool double sided ribbon is available here:
