This week our cards are going to a friend of Redi2stamp. She has lost both her younger and her older brother in the space of one week due to health problems. She needs some encouragement and HUGE hugs.
I made the background first, then stamped all the flowers. I stamped and fussy cut the butterflies and used gem flourishes for trails. I also sprayed gold sheer Shimmer Spritz over top. Too bad it doesn't show.
I can't imagine the heartbreak of losing two family members like this. Hopefully we will all be able share some comforting thoughts and hugs.
