It is sheer joy to be able to make this card for our dear little friend and neighbour Shania who turns 4 tomorrow. Some of you have heard me share Shania's story - she has had 4 Open Heart surgeries already in her little life and has sewn herself securley into the hearts of each member of our family!! This is the first birthday she has had where she hasn't had a surgery - so is a big event!!
I have chalked the image and added Kindy Glitz on the wings to give them that extra sparke. The edges have been sponged and lace has been added along the left edge of the image. Both the DP and the panel have been embossed and sponged and layered onto black CS. Nail bling has been added , along with a sentiment and flower, The sentiment is from PTI, the final touch is the added butterflies, with Nail Bling added.

Oh Linda~ so adorable! It is so wonderful to hear that lil Shania is celebrating life! I remember her story and how we prayed for her, and also how she would climb into your lap and tenderly call you 'Winda'. Your love for Shania is seen in this card, and I know Nat will appreciate the effort in this lovely card. Thanks for sharing 'your' baby with us! LYMI
