This is my card for today's inspiration challenge. This is my story, I wish my story was happy for Maddy's sake.
1. Heavy on my mind today is my friend Maddy Mason. Many of you are familiar with Maddy. She has been very encouraging to many a stamper.
2. When I saw that the ispiration challenge was artwork, it made me think of Maddy even more as Maddy's wonderful creations have always been more on the artsey side. She is very talented and has a very unique and wonderful artsey style.
3. I tried to make this card in Maddy's style, not sure I succeeded but I think she will like it.
4. I have posted a RAK request (link below). I have updated that thread with some news I received from Maddy last night. It is not good news I am sad to say.
5. If you would like to help Maddy get through a very difficult time by sending her a card, your thoughts, prayers and well wishes, please visit this thread and pm me for her address.
6. In that thread I have also posted a link to Maddy's gallery.
