Thinking Of You


I made this card for my uncle who has just been diagnosed with cancer. I know it's not very manly, but I felt like I had to add some more to it and I grabbed my flower stamps without really thinking!
I got the idea for the three big pieces of cardstock placed this way from the PaperCrafts magazine. Then I adapted it to what I had. I inked the individual words of the sentiment and stamped them each on a different piece of cardstock and then cut to size. I put a flower on each piece with VersaMark ink, and then decided to add cut flowers to them too. I punched tiny holes and added the flowers to the card with silver brads. Then I still felt it was missing something, so I added VersaMark flowers to the off-white paper. It isn't my favorite, but I know he will enjoy getting it in the mail.
