Silver Sympathy

Well, Happy Labour Day everyone, hope you are all having a great day. The weather here is nice and warm in South West Ontario and my hubby and son have gone off golfing, which leaves me with some 'me' time.

This is not my favourite kind of card to make, but I think most of us feel that way. Still, we hope to bless the people we send them to, in some small way.

I had to change plans on this card as I was going to use an embossing folder on the white cardstock behind the main image, but once again I forgot that the folders are not big enough to use on a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 card. That's why I decided to put the butterflies on instead. It's not quite the look I was planning for, but I quite like it. I used Stampin' Up's Lovely As A Tree and the butterfly was one from my collection of Magnolia stamps.

Well, this is my second post on my new blog and the first one I've done without my daughter here to instruct me, so I hope I'm doing it right!!
