Thinking of You Card

This card was made for a friend that has gone through some tough times lately.  I wanted them to know I cared and what better way than to send them a card (I called too).  This is a card type I like to make from time to time.  I took the Rose Red card stock and cut it 5-1/2 X 4-1/4 and that is to be the base of the card...just a single piece. Then I cut the layering piece at 4 X 10-1/2 and scored at 5-1/4. Butterfly Basics Stamp set was used on this card. Then the card was stamped with Daffodil Delight and the honeycomb stamp and on this one you stamp off before stamping card. The fern was inked up in Old Olive ink and once you stamp it with full inked image then stamp a little to the side again without inking it up. Butterfly was stamped in Rose Red ink and die cut with the Butterfly Thinlits and placed on card with a dimensional.  The sentiment is from Sassy Salutations and was stamped in Rose Red ink.  The flower was inked up in Smokey Slate ink and stamped off before putting it on the card.  The postage stamp was also inked up in Smokey Slate ink and stamped off.  You can barely see it...right above the right butterfly wing.  On the inside a Rose Red butterfly was stamped in the bottom corner.  As you can see I also did an envelope.  You cannot go wrong with this stamp set and it is still available in the Occasions catalog until June 30th.
