My friend Katie from Paper Makeup Stampshad this DIGI image —> Fairy for Kayleigh<— designed to raise money for the family of Kayleigh Freeman. You can ready her story —> here.
Kayleigh passed away after a long fight with many medical issues since birth.
Upon linking this info, I went to the latest entries on their family blog, and just cried my heart out for this family. I didn’t even READ it, I just looked at the photos. I have no idea how they are coping. Talk about having Faith. Its easy to SAY, but not easy to LIVE. They are living it. They are in my prayers.
I made this card for the family, using Kayleigh’s image
Sentiment reads:
Each new life, no matter how fragile or brief, leaves tiny footprints upon our hearts
Sentiment is from Papertrey Ink-With Sympathy- Loss of a Child
Never did I want to have to use this set again. But, it was perfect, for such a time, when there are NO WORDS that can help.
Going with the sentiment-I airbrushed a heart around the Fairy Angel.
Her wings are glittered.
I think this is such a peaceful image.
Katie is doing a GIVEAWAY for a $25 gift certificate for those who use this image. Drawing is May 30th

As I leave this post, I hope you are thankful for your family, health and life. Remember how precious EACH moment is. I’m off to appreciate my own children and family, as I say a prayer for the Freeman’s.
May God bless little Kayleigh.
