MOJO 109 "Thinking of You"



This will be used immediately for a family member who was killed in a car accident on Sunday. A truck pulled out in front of her on a highway and she died instantly.

Paper: butterflies....Paper Studio
solid: CTMH
Paper Punches: Stampin' Up, Paper Shapers, and Paper Studio

The card's colors include two shades of brown and creme. The butterfly paper had many possibilites and I liked the look and size of the large one the best and made it the focal point. A smaller butterfly was repeated on the message and another inside the card. I used a scallop paper punch for a ribbon effect and then sanded it for a little texture.

I struggled as to whether or not to use colored pencils (muted shades) and for the moment, I'll leave it as it is. Some of you have been at this longer and may have a suggestion or two to improve this before it's sent.
