Hello everyone. I hope the start to your week is going smoothly. I am heading to my sister Nancy's house later this morning to visit my mom. We've moved her there so she will not be alone anymore. My sister and her husband live in a large house near a lake called Lake Minnetonka. My mom loves it there, even though it was so difficult for her to leave her own little condo, knowing she will never see it again. She knows it's the best thing for her and very soon we will be getting full time nursing care for her also. I want to bring her a card because she loves getting them from me. She has always been a bit surprised that I took up this hobby. She has a hard time believing that I have enough patience to make them. She knows me well. She loves butterflies, flowers and the color pink, so this is what I came up with.
The Nesties and embossed dots were done with the Cuttlebug and I used my white gel pen around both the outside of the card and the scalloped circle cut-out. The Traditional Butterfly is embossed in white and the XOXO sentiment is from a Hero Arts Valentine clear set. I hope she likes it.
Thank you for your visit today. I so appreciate it!
