Feel better soon.....

My auntie went into hospital last week for an operation, so I sent her this card to (hopefully) cheer her up. I used papers from the First Edition 'Bird Song'  8x8 stack and two of my latest aquisitions, cartridge wise.
The large lozenge shape on the front of the card was cut from embossed cardstock (the embossing isn't deep so it cuts ok) and embellished with a bloom cut from shimmer cardstock (it looks a bit like a triffid!). I added a couple of little butterfies and some punched flowers with pearl centres. The sentiment (which cut beautifully!) was also cut from shimmer cardstock, layered up and adhered with foam pads to the card front.
Carts used:
Flower - Kate's ABC (such a cute cart!)
Sentiment & shaped panel- Phrases (Boy! Was this cart  a long time coming!)
Butterflies- Stamping Solutions
Hope you're all having a great weekend!
TTFN!
