I made this card as a tribute to my good friend and dt sister, Judy (Joy in a Jar). Yesterday was her birthday and one of her card layouts was featured for SC237 so I thought I would make this one for her. Since her favorite color is pink, I made it pink. (Sorry, I didn't have any appropriate giraffes, Judy)
I also used today's challenge "Doubles", Flutter By Wednesday (to include butterflies or fairies) and Creative Inspirations Challenge to sew on a card. I doubled my butterflies. These butterflies were silver but since I wanted to accent with gold (to represent Judy's heart of gold), I embossed them in gold.
The image is from Our Daily Bread Designs from the Mother Teresa set. I thought this was appropriate since she is my fellow "breadstick" for the ODBD team.
Here is to you Judy! Hope you had a wonderful day!! Sorry I wasn't able to complete it yesterday or better yet before I left for vacation. Better late than never right?!

Beautiful in pink! Love the waterlily and the idea behind the gold embossed butterflies. I'm sure she knew and appreciated how much thought you put into this card.
