Springtime Hugs

Happy Tuesday, all.  I needed a card for a friend of ours who is going through her second cancer diagnosis. She is taking it like a champ but of course, always needs encouragement.  I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday as well as the colors from Sunday Stamps:




I used the retired Dainty Delight bundle along with some old and new papers for her card:


The background paper is from Storybook Moments, along with some retired Crushed Curry DSP.  I stamped the images in Pecan Pie and colored them in with a Blender Pen.  They went against a panel cut with the new Everyday Arches dies in Basic White and Crumb Cake.  I did emboss the white panel with the Eyelet EF but I am wishing I had left it plain!  I also added a little gingham ribbon.  The butterflies and sentiment are from a scrapbook.com set:


A CTMH sentiment went on the inside, stamped in Lost Lagoon:


Thanks for visiting today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!

This is so pretty LeAnne - your colour choices give it an almost vintage feel with that blue paper too. That delicate stem is just lovely!
