Spring floral card with yellow and pink blooms, a butterfly, and inspirational text on turquoise. Set against a pastel background.

Hello Lovelies! I had big plans when I first started working on this card. I was expecting to get up to some mixed media mischief, but I ended up deciding on a stamped collage and some fussy cutting in an unusual color palette, and I couldn't be happier.

The stamp from the I See Paris set got me started in creating the bacikground and then added in some images from the Air Travel set and a sentiment from the Just Thoughts set to inspire and encourage using this Air Travel Encouragement Card.
