My oldest daughter's birthday is at the end of June, but we delayed her family birthday celebration until mid-July as my husband (her father) had knee replacement on her birthday, and a week later, he ended up returning to the hospital for another week with gastric complications. By mid-July, we were ready to host a barbecue to celebrate Michele and her Dad's continued recovery. Needless to say, I needed to finish her birthday card!
I have written several times about our little unicorn, Michele's 20-month old, little daughter, so dubbed during her stay in the NICU after her birth. Because her veins were so small, her care team inserted her intravenous application into a vein in her head, which stuck up almost straight up, giving her the look of a unicorn with its cute little horn. My inspiration for Michele's card came from this scenario. I have acquired a multitude of stamps and dies with a unicorn theme because of this story that became part of our lives, and I thought it time the mother of our unicorn received her very own unicorn card! Take a look at Michele's finished card both inside and out!
