I used the Stampin Up "Thoughts and Prayers" stamp set again. I love love love this set! It's so versatile! :) ...and it makes even the simplest cards look striking. I also embossed the background with my Victoria embossing folder to give the card a little texture. Finally, I added two punched out butterflies (not sure of the punch name or brand) from my stash and added some bling to make them pop a little. :)
I also added pop dots to the whole card...just to give it a little dimension and keep things a little different. I love how it turned out! :)
I found a few challenges to enter this card into:
The Cuttlebug Spot is having a "What's on Your Desk?" challenge. Here's what I found lying around...and decided to get another card made with the Stampin' Up stamp set. :)

This is such a beautiful sympathy card I love the embossing and the blue flowers are so pretty.

Hi Divinity! This is just beautiful, and I love this shade of blue. You really did an amazing job, and I feel so lucky and blessed to have you share it with us in this week's challenge at Word Art Wednesday. I can't find anything here on your blog about where you live, but I'm hoping it's in the U.S., cuz I'd like to mail you a bit of my handmade scrunched seam binding to use on your sweet cards. I think you would enjoy it, and I'd love to send you some. You can find my email address on the Word Art Wednesday blog and let me know.
