These are to help bring my wonderful, kind and loving friend a little bit of happiness. She has had a tough year....
Stamped my SU! Bloomin' Beautiful flower in VersaMark and embossed with gold. I made two sets of flowers and used the heads of one set to pop up for a little added dimension. Colored them with markers, stickled and added tiny pearl center and stickles to fancy them up. Cut them all out (WHEW! those stems are thin) and mounted them over a Cuttlebugged pink panel over gold and then green. Added some gold Marianne butterflies. Added a Martha Stewart border punch, a pink shiny ribbon, decorated the envelope and VOILA!

Just beautiful Phyllis. So sorry to hear of your friend's plight. I can't imagine how devastated she must feel at a time in her life when she should be enjoying the fruits of her labours.
