Mojo Monday Sketch-A Miracle
Hello friends, I am writing today's post with a very grateful heart, my husband was in a motorcycle accident on Saturday that could have landed him in a wheelchair or even death. We are praising God today and I asked that you send up thanks to Him as well! I was not with him, I had to work, two cars ahead of him did not have brake lights and the card ahead of him had to stop suddenly; he tried to avoid but clipped the taillight and flipped the bike and he was thrown off. He was wearing a DOT helmet, this is vital! He has a C4 fractured vertebra, he is in a neck brace for at least two weeks(we need to see a doctor next week), we are sooooo grateful that he is not any worse.......a true miracle! Please keep us in your prayers, we are home and he is resting until we go to the doctor in a week. There is a picture attached of the bike.
Onto my card, it was made for my dh, I want him to know how much I love him and I am very grateful for him. I used one of my favorite Verve stamps set Love Notes...I am such a romantic..lol. I used my dh favorite colors(which also happen to be mine) made the card distressed and old looking; he really likes that too. There are lots of feelings going into this one, it was made with tons of love! Thanks so much for your support and prayers. Hold those you love close and always look on the bright side of all things...if God is present there is always a bright side.....enjoy!
