Christmas is for Kids Banner Blog Hop

Welcome to day 2 of the Christmas is for Kids Holiday Banners Blog Hop

First let me just say that WOW!!!! wasn't day 1 just the best?  So, many super talented ladies.  If you missed yesterdays hop there's still time to check it out.  Just head on over to Ellen's blog and you can see what you missed.

I'm gonna get right to it...

You should be arriving here from our wonderful hostess' Blog  Ellen's Blog

If you just happened to come on by here on your own and you want to get in on the fun start at here blog.

Okay so each on of us talented ladies was asked to create a banner that will adorn on of the children's rooms or one of the hallways of Pediatric Specialty Care.  The children (ages 0-21)  are medically-fragile and technologically-dependent -- many are tethered to a ventilator that runs through a tracheostomy; most are wheelchair-bound, and cognitively impaired. They are all delightful children who face life with optimism and hope for a better tomorrow.

For my banner I used a the Cricut Decals cartridge and I think they came out so cute.

Here's the whole banner.

Now I'll show you some close-ups:

Great New Digi is coming on Friday from Jen's Digi Stamps

I just wanted to remind you to stop by Jens Digi Stamps tomorrow to pick up your new friday freebie digi.... It's a really cute one this week and I can't wait to share the slider card that I made with you.

But, you'll have to wait until tomorrow to see it.

For those of you who may be wondering how we made out with Brittany and her arm.... well, we have another Dr. appointment tomorrow so well go from there.  She's now able to move her fingers Yay!!!  But, when she's wearing the brace she said it feels like someone is sawing across her forearm area.  and ,  if she takes the braces off of her arm she said her fingers go numb, get pins and needles and tingle.  So, I'm thinking maybe it's nerve damage...I hope not but, I'm not a Dr. so I'm not going to get upset over anything yet. 

I wish you all nothing but the best.

Create today and Everyday.
