So cute!!!! I just LOVE that strawberry stamo :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sad for you, Kirsty. I am sure that your sadness will turn when she realizes all the dreams and hopes that you have built into her. Between now and then, I wish you peace... kinda like how peaceful your card looks. The soft colors and frame set such a lovely tone. Focus on the good until your emotions catch up to your dreams for her.
ReplyDeleteit's always hard to let go when someone so close to you starts another phase of their life. but i'm sure you'll be proud that she's seeing the world and learning so much
ReplyDeleteJust think what a fabulous job you did as a mother that she has this wonderful opportunity and how much it will broaden her horizons! Big hug! Darnell
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful card. I just love how you did the two papered frame Kirsty. Very clever. WOW! Studying in Rome. How exciting for her. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful Kirsty...I love the pretty details!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to your daughter...I'm sure she'll have the most wonderful time in Rome. My eldest daughter has just spent the last year in Madrid and Porto and loved every minute (and the time will just fly by...Skype is a great thing too!)
Happy Wednesday,

Love the card---especially how you colored in the stamp----what is that saying we give our children roots but also wings:(. Don't be sad!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card. Love the crinkled ribbon!! Praying for you as you miss your DD!! I've been an empty nester since June, but our children are a bit closer, so I get to see them now and then. ~ Blessings, Tracey
