QUICK AND EASY Thinking of You

My mother recently mentioned that she would like to have some extra cards on hand so I thought I would make up a few for her that could be used for birthday, get well and even as a sympathy. 

I had seen a very similar card on someone's blog that used this SU Medallion stamp.  I made several similar to this for her.  I left some blank inside and on a couple made them specifically for a birthday and one for a sympathy.

As careful as I try to be, I made a boo boo on the right hand card and saw a streak of the ink.  Not good!  Luckily I found this butterfly on a sheet of K & Company dimensional butterflies.  The color was perfect for the  SU Rich Razzleberry ink.

Thank you for stopping by!  Your comments are always welcome..............I love hearing from you!

Very pretty, Vicki! And how clever to use a butterfly to cover a boo-boo! It looks like it was supposed to be there!
