Challenge #66 - It's a Garden Party!

Welcome to another Sentimental Sunday!

Before we start with today's challenge, we'd like to mention a special fundraiser that we would like to tell everyone about.  Kim Sherrod is having a fundraiser for her dear friend whose son was admitted to the hospital for heart problems. Kim is trying to raise money for her friend to be able to see her son, but it's not going well. Her friend is struggling financially and can't afford to make the trip.

She approached me about designing some stamps for her and I was glad to do so.  You can purchase the stamps in digi format or possibly as clear stamps, too by visiting THIS PAGE.  So if you can, please stop over and help her raise some money for a very worthy cause.  Next week, some of the Sentimental Sundays team members will be showcasing the stamps to inspire you to create using the images.

And now, back to our challenge for this week.

    What a wonderful thing you are doing for your friend. So sad that she can't see her son. My heart goes out to her. I have placed my order for stamps to help out.
