Hello and Happy Friday! Today is Bloggers Challenge Day and this week our theme is LOVE! One thing many people may not know, is my husband and I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to adopt a sweet child. She is now a 19 yo beautiful young lady! We adopted Ariel back in 1997. We went through some very turbulent years, but learned a lot through the experience and love her and are SO proud of her too!
I also used the Technique Junkie technique called Glossy Gesso from the Dec '10/ Jan '11 Issue.
Here are a few more details:

What a beautiful sentiment for a lovely card.
Adoption is the most selfless act of love in my book -- to give a child a home and love them as your own is showing Christ's love and a perfect example! This sentiment is one I have loved forever -- beautiful card!
