Inspired by... MADDI!

Hi everyone! Sorry for the late post today. Because of the holidays, I've decided to do a special week of inspiration by various artists. To begin with today, I will be featuring one of my favorite artists, my 9 year old niece, Maddi. Tomorrow I will feature one of my other favorite artists, Maddi's sister, Emma. On Monday and Tuesday, I can't wait to show you some "Inspired by..." cards featuring a Hero Arts flickr friend who also makes videos that go along with her cards...hhhmmm, who could it be.... :)

As I said before, this gorgeous card was made by my 9 year old niece Maddi! Whenever I get mail from Maddi, I can't wait to open the envelope because I know it will be some kind of beautiful card creation, coloring, or picture she has made herself. I love how Maddi drew her own flower and made a color pattern when she colored in the petals. Don't the leaves on the stem make the perfect heart!? Finally, Maddi is so creative to think of weaving the ribbon to decorate the front of the card. Maddi- I love you so, so, SO much and I always have your card sitting out where I can see it. You always make me smile BIG!

Here is my take on Maddi's BEAUTIFUL card:

Thanks everyone for stopping by! I know it will just make Maddi's day to read your comments about her card. Please be sure to stop by tomorrow, when I share Emma's fun card!
