Bentley's Journey by Breanna for St.Judes

My daughter Breanna volunteered to write a children's storybook and donate it to St. Judes Childrens Hospital.
There were a few students in her English class that are also doing storybooks as well! Breanna did an AWESOME job on her story!

She wrote about a young boy who wanted his letter to get to Santa and he had 2 days til Christmas so he decided to do this long journey with his dog Baxter to the North Pole

A DARLING story that my daughter wrote all on her own, and she did an AWESOME job on it!! Well Bentley and his dog Baxter make it to the north pole and they get to meet Santa, and of course Santa grants his wish for a new puppy for Baxter!!!
Awesome Job Breanna! I'm sooo proud of you! Love you sweetie!

















I helped Breanna do the cover and I did the bows for her. We used Really Reasonable Ribbon in Diamond Satin Red.. The image on the front is from Alota Rubber Stamps. We used a border punch from Martha Stewart for the border. All lettering is stickers!

I LOVE THIS ENTIRE CONCEPT!!
Great idea writing for St. Jude's, especially at Christmas time!
Her story idea is awesome (who wouldn't love a new puppy from Santa!!)
Your cover art is beautiful and you've made a gift together that some child is going to cherish as long as they can!!

You and your daugther did a great job. The book is gorgeous to look at and I am sure that the story is equally lovely.

Thanks for joining us at Creative Card Crew.
