This week we are going to Toronto, Canada....one of my favorite cities...to bring cheer to Alix, the daughter of a fellow Teapotter Elizabeth(I Love Rubber!). She has had some "downs" in her life recently, but things are starting to look up. Our cards are to be in pink, black and silver.....a fav combination of Alix.
I'm coming in the back door today since we were to have a white, fluffy dog on our card, but I don't have such a dog stamp, so I used butterflies instead as a symbol of hope.

Sallie what a gprgeous and rich looking card - just the thing to pick up Alix's spirits and get her going again. Love the symbolism of hope in the butterflies!!

This is gorgeous Sallie, Alix will love it. Butterflies are a thing in our family as my Mom always has butterfly magnets on her fridge and tells all the grand daughters that they are a sign of freedom for women. Couldn't be more apropos.
