Near To The Heart of God
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: mitchygitchygoomy

 Thank you for the Cozy Challenge, Denise. My card is going where the snow doesn't typically drive indoors to snuggle into sweaters and steamy cuppas. It is going to our own stamping sister Brenda/Benzi who is taking a break while her own heart breaks after losing her dear, sweet son. My heart breaks with hers. When someone is close to me, I try to send more of a heart to heart card. Even though we have never met in person, we have shared many heartfelt moments. This card visualizes our stamping sister, snuggled in a chair in a beautiful garden, maybe not cozy in the circumstances, but snuggled near to the heart of her God, resting in His arms while He whispers that not a sparrow falls to the ground without His notice and that we are worth much more than the sparrows to Him. He has her boy, and her own heart guarded and kept safely with Him.
I found the inspiration for this card in this beautiful gallery submission: LSC121-In my Garden by atomicbutterfly at Splitcoaststampers

I am just now getting a card ready to send to dear Brenda. What a heartfelt write up-it brought tears, Michele. Still praying for Brenda.
Your card is stunning! tfs.
