Hello Blogging Friends!!

Welcome to my project for the "It's A Girl Thing: Turner Syndrome Awareness 3rd Annual Blog Hop and for this year we have added a Card Challenge so that more people can play along with us!

Turner Syndrome is a genetic disorder where a female is born missing partial or all of her second X chromosome leaving her with life-long medical issues and learning disabilities.  This condition occurs one in every 2,000 female births worldwide, but is more common among pregnancies that do not survive to full term.  That is why Turner Syndrome Females are considered MIRACLES!

Prize Winners will be announced on March 13th, 2021.

23 Caring and Generous Sponsors and 12 Design Team Members are offering prizes to a commenter and card makers and they are helping bring Turner Syndrome Awareness to the Public.  For details on how you might win any of these fabulous prizes, please see Lori's TS home page.  Thank you for learning about Turner Syndrome.

My TS related project is inspired by the TSF Mood Board

I used Reflections Stamp "Bella" for the girl.  I like that she is wearing shoes that are too big, making her look like she is playing dress up.  The stamp included wings which could indicate she is a fairy, or is playing dress up fairy.  The image included a headband with feather that I choose not to include.  The card is colored using Prismacolor Pencils.  The sentiment came from Hero Arts "Thanks" stamp set.  The garden was created using Stampin' Up "Grace's Garden Stamp Set".  The butterflies were created using Stampin' Up "Papillon Potpouri".  Once I put the butterflies on, I wondered if the little girl is pretending to be a butterfly.  

The Turner Syndrome Foundation is a worthy cause.  We need to spread the word to support girls and women.  It was new information to me that these girls are usually lost during pregnancy.  The girls that make it full term are truly miracles.
