My parents have been married for 63 years. When Mom had her surgery Dad was at the hospital everyday. I took this picture of them walking in the hall...Mom is so short Dad had to hold up her robe and hospital gown. They are such sweet and loving parents...I am so blessed!! I made a card for them with Crafty Secrets Cherish set...I thought this set showing the lovers from the back went perfect with their picture. The PTI Sweet Blush cs was stamped with black and the edges were sponged with the Sweet Blush ink. I colored some areas on the image and the heart with a SU Blush Blossom marker.The ribbon was heat curled and then draped around the layers. TFL and have a great weekend!!

Oh Joanie- I have to confess that the sweet photo is what drew me in, and I didn't even know it was you until it came up- I almost cried at your sweet story. Today's world is so disposable so it is truely beautiful when you see such caring like this so late in life. You are blessed- your parents sound wonderful!
LYMI sissy!
(Oh yeah- great card too!)
