Emergency Hugs

Is this little bear not the cutest thing!? My sister is currently spending her weeks alone as her husband has to be out of town for work/school and comes home only on the weekends, so I figured she needed a cheering up card. I'm using the sketch from the Waltzingmouse Makes Challenge #64. They require you to use at least one of there stamps and this sentiment is from the only set I own. It is a digital set that Waltzingmouse created as part of a fund-raising package for a woman named Katie that is battling cancer. You can read her story on this blog. The sentiment belongs with a firetruck, but I thought it very fitting for the occasion. The little bear is a stamp I just got from The Pixie Cottage and I think he will get a lot of use. My card also fits the challenge from Our Daily Bread Designs #76 to use lacing, and the challenge from the Paper Variety to use your favorite color which for me is hands down: blue. The Paper Variety is celebrating their anniversary this week and are having lots of challenges and fun at the party.

How adorable! The little mice climbing on the bear is so cute! Makes me smile. And I am so glad that you were able to play along using a Waltzingmouse digi sentiment too! Great job on the sketch!
