Blue Bird Thanks and Encourages

One of my passions, besides stamping, is genealogy. I enjoy researching and preserving my family history. Recently, I called my Uncle Tim and asked him to take digital pictures of the old family bible and email them to me, which he did! Thanks Uncle Tim!

There were about 16 pages to take pictures of and then edit and then email...so it took a little time. I know that my Uncle Tim has other things that are more important to take care of, so I appreciate his time. One of the more important concerns that my uncle is helping with is his wife's, my Aunt Pat, health. She has struggled tremendously with an injury that has caused many surgeries through out the years. She has also battled with breast cancer.

Now my Aunt Pat loves blue and white decor items. And so for a while now I have been creating in my mind a card to make her that is only blue and white.....kind of like the "blue willow" china. So I finally made a card and it now has a two fold mission......The first is to encourage my Aunt Pat and the second reason is to Thank my Uncle Tim.

This card was made using the Carte Postale stamp set, the Floral background stamp set, and retired stamp set Woodland Cottage. All stamp sets are SU. I used SU Whisper White paper and SU Brilliant Blue ink. The bird is uplifted by a dimensional. I used the SU Tearing Edge tool to get a straight torn edge on the Floral stamped paper.
