Fran (philsmom) shared a beautiful poem of five companions. Our destination is Leesville Louisianna, to a Korean lady with advanced stage cancer. She is a friend of txcrafter60.
Having the Far East DP really made an easy starting point. I wanted to make a kind of cherry blossom looking tree. The flowers and foliage were found in the wedding section of Michaels. I just cut them apart and added them to the die cut branch.
You really cant see it, but the butterflies wings are all lifted from the paper. They are covered with stickles and have a dot of black enamel accents. I used a Veramark pen to make a short trail and added the gold Perfect Pearls. So, in real life, there is a lot of shimmer. Oh and the dragonfly was made the same way.
I will include some scripture on the inside. Thanks for stopping by!

This is gorgeous Kathleen! I love the shimmer on the butterfly trails and those flowers are beautiful..this definitely has an Asian feel to it and a very peaceful quality to it. I'm sure it will be much appreciated.
