PLEASE SEND A SMILE TO MADDY
You may remember back in July of 2012, Simon Says Stamp introduced you to this beautiful and brave young girl, Maddy Justice. Sadly, she was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment, followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.
Please open your hearts & crafting supplies once again and make a card for Maddy and send them to this address:
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Maddy Justice-Patient
262 Danny Thomas Place
Attention Mail Stop 108
Memphis, TN 38105
For this reason, I have decided to make use of the colour challenge from Paper Smooches Sparks which is bright and colourful to bring a smile on Maddy.
This is the first time that I layered the die cuts going "backwards" (if you know what I mean) which took me a while to figure out how to do it right. I made a shot of how I did the arrangement at the end of this post. This is also the first time that I am doing a shaker card by putting sequins inside. The sentiment inside the shaker is "hugs"which I thought it would be appropriate for Maddy.
