Lavender & Lace - For an Amazing Sister-in-Law

Today I made a gentle card for a very special person, my youngest sister-in-law.

She is gentle, encouraging, soft-spoken (unless she's playing a game), and oh, did I mention--

she's graduating with her English degree.

 

While I love that there are so many passionate and skilled scientists in our family,

I do often feel like the lonesome literature and arts type.  Talking about these kinds of things

with Hannah is always, always a pleasure.  She's just a beautiful gem of a person and I am so very proud of all that she's accomplished.

 

 

 

For the layout I followed CAS(E) this Sketch #169:
