I love dragonflies!



Hello everyone,

I've had these dragonflies die cuts for a while now and somehow never got around to using them. I'm so glad the time has come! 

I made this card for Dragonfly Card Drive, over at Taylored Expressions. The cards will be donated to the Neonatal Intensive Care nurses where they use the dragonfly as a symbol of hope for families who have lost a child during delivery or in the early stages of life. Families are given a dragonfly card while they are in the hospital as something to hold on to, cherish, and comfort them after the quiet time spent with their son or daughter. 

As a mom eagerly waiting for her first baby, I cannot even begin to understand what it means to lose a child. It's probably the most painful thing there is.
