I've had this wonderful set called " Back in 10 " from There She Goes for a while now. Finally I got around to making 4 different cards, varying as to colour. I have couple of friends struggling with a - health problem, b - family troubles. I thought these cards might help encourage them. I did a couple with Happy Birthday as well . I really loved this paper! The card is sponged in antique linen distressing ink - but truly , I have trouble making distressed cards.
Thanks so much for looking! CE on the net and on the butterflies.

Debi, both your cards are so sweet. I say awwwww each time I look at these. I'm sure whoever gets this will do the same.

Who is this? Could this be Agent 9999 on vacation again to take a break and make a card? I know, it's always a secret ploy with you. You card is so adorable and I know what you mean about distressing - hard for me to do. I love the image, your coloring and dp and especially the shiny parts with the ce. I love to use ce. Great to see an upload. Hopefully, I can do one soon.

These are both adorable, Deborah!! Something cheery for the blues. Just to hold these in your hand and know that someone is thinking of you is enough to be a "pick me up".
For the LOTV stamps, the rubber is etched deeply enough for an impression, but I did have one that had some higher spots in it and it was very hard to get a clean image even when I did mount it. I usually have to stand up over these ones and have even downward pressure.

another sweet card Deborah, I didn't realize you made a couple of them in different colors. I really should do this too, everything is already out on the table right.... I'll try to remember, but sometimes my "remember" is broke...love the glaze you added to the net, TFS
