I have several friends who have children graduating this year. I thought it would be nice to make some cards for the moms as well as the graduates. When I saw this quote the other day, I knew that it was perfect for this kind of card. I loved this sketch with the three square panels at the bottom. I stamped the butterfly from the Mark's Finest Papers set called "Daffodil and Anise" with black stazon ink and water colored them and cut them out. I added pearls for the butterfly trails. I made 3 trails one to give the illusion of that third unseen butterfly.
