Dear God . . . Please Let Me Pass!

I so wanted to try the sketch last week over at Stuck On U Sketches.  I got this one made, but it was too late to link it up.  Oh well.  It was a fun sketch to try, and I'm happy with how it turned out.  I've shown the sketch below and then my interpretation of it.

The pictures are from 2008 when my youngest daughter was opening the letter which held her CITA dental hygiene scores.  She had worried about this exam for months!  She had to find a patient who had not had a dental cleaning in quite some time and take them with her to Raleigh.  We had to pay for their gas, hotel, compensate them for their time, and pray they showed up!  LOL.  The patient did great, and these pictures show my daughter as she opened that letter.  The first picture is of her praying, and then her jubilation as she saw that she passed, and actually scored 100!  Woo hoo!

I used the Storybook Cricut cartridge for the "Dear God" and the small scalloped circle behind the flowers on the right page; Cindy Loo cartridge for the large flourish; Lacy Labels for the label behind the title; Primas flowers; a Spellbinders tag for the subtitle; and, a Sizzlit die for the small flourishes.  I added the yellow rectangle on the picture of the letter to hide personal info.  Thanks in advance for your comments.
