Smile Quiting Smoking Card Ideas

I have an employee who is trying to quit smoking. She's doing very well but I would like to give her some encouragement every so often in the form of a card. I'm at a lost for what kind of theme to use in a card....funny or otherwise. Do any of you have some ideas? I've seen some wonderful responses when others need help for cards so I'm hoping you can help me. Thanks in advance!

I think a cute or funny theme would be best--I know people can get cranky when they are trying to quit smoking, so I'm thinking some humor might help.
As for WHAT, I'm at a loss. Maybe the watering can I've seen on one of the SU! stamps--stamp only the watering can part, masking out the flowers. Tip the can so it looks like it could be pouring water. On the inside handwrite or use your computer to say something like "I'm so proud of you for dousing your smoking. Keep up the good work!"
Or do a travel theme on the front and say "good luck on your cruise". On the inside would be "isn't that what you're going to do with all the money you are saving by not smoking? Good job!"
Use a bird stamp and on the front say "A little bird told me..." Inside it would say"...that you are doing really well at not smoking. Congratulations!"
Sorry, that's all I can come up with right now. How about some of your other stampers?

A "butt free" theme immediately comes to mind - perhaps the back end of a person or animal image with a big red circle with a line through it?

I just quit smoking 7 weeks ago and even I am at a loss for ideas. how about something that says
'keep up the great work'
'good job'
'I am proud of you'

praise means ALOT! I really don't know what else to suggest. or make one of an invitation to take them out for lunch. let me know what you decide.
I know my son took me out to celebrate 30 days and I think he was more proud than me. lol

How about something like this, but with a giant red slashed circle over it (no more butts) with this quote:
"The best way to stop smoking is to just stop - no ifs, ands or butts." ~Edith Zittler from http://www.quotegarden.com/smoking.html
Or the steam from Like it a Latte with giant red slashed circle over it. Add a giant THANK YOU on the inside & a cheerful message that you're happy she's quitting.

How about a boot that says something about kicking the habit;)
