Sweet Memories

 Yesterday we had to recognize a day that no one should ever have to recognize - it was the one year anniversary of our sweet baby grandson's Sage passing. :(  Sigh. I would never in a million years have imagined that I'd be grieving a grandbaby at any point in my life, but life doesn't care what we imagine. It was a hard day but my husband and I spent the afternoon and evening with Cass and her family and it helped to be together and sharing memories and love instead of wallowing in our grief.

Sage was my daughter Cassidy's son, and after he passed Cass started seeing giraffes everywhere. There was no significance to them during his life, but they started popping up everywhere. So she started saying things like "OK Sage, if it's you sending giraffes, let me see one at the doctor's office" and she'd walk into the doctor's office and a nurse would be wearing a giraffe print scrub.  LOL  It happens ALL THE TIME now and it brings us comfort. So anyway, of course I had to make her some giraffe cards!!! I use crafting as therapy so it's like I have some cute giraffe stamps and I have some that are more realistic, I'll share another one later this week. I'd like to enter this one into the following challenges today:

AAA Cards #310 - CAS/Optional Zoo or Animals

Wednesday's Creative Inspiration - Cute Critters

I kept this CAS and just die cut a heart from some giraffe print paper and used a kraft cardstock base. I printed out the Tall Tale Tiny Hands from Di's Digi Designs, colored with Copics, fussy cut, and attached with foam dimensional tape. Peace.
