Everyday Hero


Hello and Happy Mother's Day.  I'll chat more about that at the end of my post, let's start with my project:


I thought today was perfect to post a card that features the Ellen Hutson LLC - Essentials by Ellen - Leading Ladies - Everyday Hero Lady by Brandi.  She's been stamped with Lawn Fawn Jet Black and colored with various copics.  Her cape is green, of course, my favorite color.  I've paper pieced her top with Pattern Happy's Robots 6x6.

The background was made using the Hero Arts Infinity 12 Point Dies.  The green panel (and the Hero Lady) are on dimensional foam squares.


Did you hear that Ellen Hutson LLC is having a Mother's Day SALE?!



Who are your Everyday Heroes?  My number one Everyday Hero is my Momma.  She immigrated to the United States in the late 50's.  She went to high school in Seattle and met some great friends that still has strong friendships with.  She became a single Mom when I was in 2nd grade.  We moved from Vancouver to Seattle.  This woman that barely spoke english, never worked outside the home found a full time job and provided for my 2 older brothers and I in a way I never truly appreciated until I became a single mom in 2006.

Here's a pic that I took yesterday with my Momma and brother #2.


Here's to all of the Everyday Heroes....whether it is an awesome teacher, women that teach their children strength + compassion....the possibilities are endless.
