All For Aidan

Aidan is a sweet lil 2 year old who was recently diagnosed with T Cell Leukemia. On Wednesday, he had a port installed in his chest, spinal tap, bone marrow, and chemo in his spine. He did GREAT! This lil guy is such a trooper.  His parents have accepted that their BABY has Leukemia.. NOT the easiest thing to accept, but their faith in God and their support system have kept them going. T-Cell Leukemia has a high cure rate although chemo will be continued for quite a while. Lil Aidan LOVES mail, like any 2 year old does. So....


   I need your help. Let's get our crafting supplies out and send this lil guy some LOVE!!!  Pass this on to all your crafty friends. I think we can all take a couple minutes and make something special for him that will bring LOTS of smiles and he can look at over and over.


   Please mail your cards to:     AIDAN

Back to the Basics

For my challenge I used a sketch from Card Patterns for inspiration.  I used Gypsy Wanderings Cartridge for cutting out Happy Birthday with shadow, the present border with shadow, and a stem for my Imaginisce Flower.  I used some Celebrate It Holiday Ribbon, pop dots for the phrase and stem, a few pieces of scrap paper and distressed and inked some of the edges.  I also added bling to the center of the flower. Hope you like it!  TFL
