THINKING OF YOU CARD

Handmade card with butterflies, flowers, and vintage elements. Text reads "Thinking of you" and "SMILE." Blue and brown color scheme.

CARD HIGHLIGHTS

PREPPING THE CARD BASE AND FUSSY-CUT EPHEMERA

APPLYING THE RUBONS

CREATING THE SENTIMENT FRAME WITH ACETATE PANEL

UP CLOSE AND CRAFTY

A vibrant orange and black butterfly decorates a collage with postage stamps and botanical drawings. Text reads THE PAPERMINT. Background has green leaves. — The fussy-cut rub-on butterfly positively glows!

Vintage collage with a butterfly, flower, and leaves. A frame reads "Thinking of you." Buttons below spell "SMILE." Calm, nostalgic vibe. — My only regret is not distressing the acetate in the frame more so that it contrasts more with the background.

Close-up of a vintage postcard with a "Paris France 1965" stamp overlay, beside a patterned letter sheet. Warm and nostalgic mood. — Rub-ons are so fun and give you so much flexibility!

LAST LOOK

Decorative card with butterflies, blue flower, embossed text "Thinking of you" and "SMILE." Vintage travel stamps in the background. — I'll take Spring flowers any day!
