This one is for Maddy...(post 2 today)

If you haven't yet seen it, you should check out the Cards for Maddy drive going on over at Simon Says Stamp.  Maddy is a sweet girl with Acute Myeloid Lukemia.  I just read her last post on Caringbridge where she was 20 days into waiting for a transplant (post dated 5/25/13).  I hope that her next update is good and she is getting what she needs (transplant, etc.) and is on the road to recoverly...again. 

In the meantime, I have created a card that I wanted to send to Maddy to let her know I am thinking of her and sending positive vibes her way.  If you want to send Maddy a card, check out the info on SSS, the more smilies we can send Maddy the better!  There is even an opportunity to win some shoping at SSS  if you are so inclined.  How amazing of SSS to not only organize the drive but also give a prize away to encourage people to participate!  Although I would love to win me some SSS credit, I just want to send the card with no personal gain.
Here is my card.  I was inspired to make this card from Maddy of course, but also from this weeks Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge.  The shimmery gold from the trend watch photo, the light bulb stamp and hearts from PS Perpetual Bliss seemed the perfect combo to send to this sweet girl.  I topped it off with a couple of wood chip hearts from Freckled Fawn that I died red.  I sure hope she likes it and feels the love!
