My 4 yr old nephew Brian was recently diagnosed with Wilm's tumor of the kidney. He had his kidney removed, had a round of radiation and is now on weekly Chemo. I received this image from Guylou's Inimitability for the Spot and Dots challenge and it is perfect for a card for a little guy.....Brian is doing OK with the Chemo- he only likes nurses in Pink shirts though.......I hope he likes this doctor with the Teddy Bear! The image was colored with Copic markers and I used a Technique Junkies tutorial called Copic Texturizing on the bear.
I made a second card to donate to a Chemo center- for patients to use for Project Give Thanks. (Michelle Zindorf's sister has info on her blog HERE).

Claudia and Company- CAS cards
Bunny Zoe's Crafts- One for the Boys
Incy Wincy-Buttons and Bows

Well, I decided I could not send a card to Brian and not send one to his sister Rachel- so I used the progressive freebie from Designed2Delight.
I tried the Copic Texturizing again and ended up coming up with the pop up Frog due to a little mishap.....

Lovely cards. All the best for little Brian and for all of the family! Valerie
These are very cute cards! Somehow, your idea of clean and simple is my idea of heavily layered, but I might be too simple for most people.
The popped pieces on Rachel's card are wonderful - I think she is getting the better of the deal!
Love your cards. Love what you did with Dr Chuck! Thanks for joining us at Guylous this week!
Well, and I should have said I hope that Brian is doing well. Plus I love that you made 2 cards with the image! Love them both!
