We have a dear friend who's recently had a heart transplant.
His old heart was as big as all outdoors.
His new one is too and it's giving him a chance to continue to live, laugh and love abundantly.
We pray it will be for many, many more years.
When I saw the Make it Monday challenge,
I thought of a sun.
That made me think of Bill.
A card was born.
I don't have a lot of Papertrey Ink products.
That's a problem I've been trying to rectify!
This sentiment is in the Meadow Greens set.
I thought it was a perfect sentiment for this occasion.
I hope it will bring some sunshine your way today too.
I can't resist taking this to
Pixie's Snippet Playground
as this is a wonderful way to use some of those snippets.
Thanks for the shout out on my tulips, Di!

Bonnie, I don't have any idea how you created those strips of paper to resemble sun rays but they're sensational!!! A beautiful, beautiful card!

That's an awesome story about your friend.
And that's an awesome card too. =D
This is so lovely Bonnie. It's just another ray of sunshine, and Friend Bill will just love it. Really like all these 'rays' designs I'm seeing. I have a die but it's a NBUS. This makes me want to go hunt it up. Have you looked at ODBD for nice sentiment sets? I don't have much PTI either. Some stamps (NBUS). Happy Sunday. Hugs & tfs
A very touching story and indeed a perfect card for the occasion, it is a very cheerful card Bonnie.
Have a wonderful Sunday!
Warm hugs

Hi Bonnie. What a lovely card and perfect sentiment. Love the papers you've chosen for your sun burst. x
Wonderful card. I have never tried the sunburst look. I just love it and must look for some directions.
It has it's own special beauty and the sentiment is perfect for him!
Absolute stunner of a card Bonnie. Utterly lovely sentiment and great sunburst snippet usage.

I love the quote and your sunburst of designs & colour. Cheers, Shirleyx
Your pattern paper sun burst looks awesome, I was trying something like this the other day but it made its way into the trash, seeing ur card I am motivated to try once more :)
Great take on the challenge and a wonderful use of snippets, Bonnie! More importantly, Bill will love and treasure his special card!! Hugs, Darnell
Beautiful card...I'm sure it will brighten your friends day.
I thought everyone had a lot of Papertrey Ink products…:) Nice job with the MIM and I love this quilt card .
forgot to say I hope your friend is on the mend.
Another super card and a great way to use up scraps of patterned paper. Love the sentiment too. Elizabeth xx
I just got those dies and love them. I really like your 'quilted' area and what you did with the die for the sentiment!
