This is the card I made for my friend Brenda who was in a serious accident a few months ago. I used a free digi I found online along with a free sentiment. I colored in the image with colored pencils and OMS. I highlighted some of the butterfly, the rays of the sun and the sentiment with a Sakura Glitter Pen. I added some ribbon, pop dotted the image to an embossed flower background, attached the sentiment and viola! I know Brenda is going to appreciate all the wonderful cards from you talented ladies. I can't wait to send them to her after they reach my home.
