Many of the cards I send to Operation Write Home are one of a kind. But then I also send cards that are quick and easily reproduced , such as today's card. Using black ink, I stamped the flower images from the Proud Peacock set on white cardstock for the background and one of the sentiments from the Swirls & Curls set. (Both of these stamp sets are from the Summer Mini.) A little flower punched with an Itty Bitty punch, a rhinestone and Daffodil ribbon are the finishing touches. I will now make similar cards but change the Daffodil to Pink or Red or Pool Party. This is the type of card that makes a nice set of cards for gift giving. Choose the color you like and make a variety of cards using different sentiments. Some cards can be horizontal, some vertical. Then tie them together with a pretty bow and a little "For You" tag and there you have it--a pretty gift that anyone will enjoy! Have a great day!
