A card of encouragement for a friend who likes purple. She's not a mom, but I did send the card so I think that qualifies for this challenge. The card is straightforward stamping and coloring.
I love the symbolism of the butterfly: beauty, transformation, messenger. Inside the card is a verse adapted from an American Indian Legend about the butterfly. it reads:
On the wings of a butterfly
All your wishes, dreams and prayers
Are lifted to the sky and delivered
To God's ear.
Wishing you all a beautiful and transformative day. I hope when you see a butterfly you will think...He's listening. Blessing to you all.

Sabrina, I think bees are too noisy to be silent messengers, but dragonflies would work. Maybe you will spot some of them soon. And the butterflies should be on their way. I saw my first one yesterday -- it was probably a moth, though, sometimes I can't tell the difference. Happy Monday.

Bestill my heart Debbie, this is so incredibly gorgeous! These flowers are so beautifully arranged and colored, and with the addition of this gorgeous butterfly, this looks positively ethereal. I love the thin frame you added on top of your image pane for added interest. What a wonderful sentiment this is and even more goodness inside with this fabulous American Indian verse. What a fabulous card to make and send to a dear friend. She is going to love this! Hugs! ~Karen.
