Mojo Monday #264

It's with a heavy heart that I share this card. Our friend's had to say goodbye to their daughter/sister early today. Due to a car accident, dear, sweet Claire was ejected from the family's van during a roll-over and she was able to survive with the help of life support for one week but went home to Heaven today. She was 11 years old and will be missed by friends and family! She's dancing in Heaven today!
Here's the Mojo Monday sketch for this week:


My card is a 5 1/4" x 5 1/4" colonial white cardstock base. I used the B&T paper pack from My Mind's Eye: Lost & Found 2: Rosy collection.
The inside sentiment is from the Verve stamp set "Forever in Our Hearts". Which is fitting for our community because those who knew Claire will definitely have her sweet spirit in our hearts forever!
The flowers were made by the Art Philosophy cartridge and the Cricut and I added a red grosgrain ribbon for a pop of color. I used "Hodge Podge Alphabet" for creating her name.


Thanks for stopping by!

    Thank you! It's such a sad time for their family. Death of a child is always so unfortunate.

    I'm sure it feels like such a small thing compared to the loss this family suffered, but this card will be cherished for years to come because of the love you poured into it. My prayers are with all affected by this tragic loss.
