Two years ago this week my Aunt passed away - and one of her most favorite things in the world were dragonflies and hot air balloons. Each year on the anniversary of her passing I vowed to send my grandmother a card to remind her I am thinking of her so she is reminded that she is not alone in her sadness, because I am sure as time passes others will begin to heal and as a Mom I am sure her wound will never quite heal the same way another person's will.

Seeing this sketch seems like perfection. I was hitting a wall this week - not sure how to make her card this week.

I don't even have to think about how to work the balloons into the theme!

Thank you, ladies.

:)

I may not share the words on the inside of the card, but I will share the "finish" on the inside and the matching envie.

That is a very thoughtful way to remember her.

Remember the balloons can be dragonflies, flowers, just as long as you use the sketch as inspiration.

I just worked with supplies I had on my table and here's what I came up with. I used favorite patterned paper (the plaid), a butterfly (it's in the picture with the puppy), and I finished the inside of the card.

I turned the sketch on its side. I used: fav PP (the Echo Park country drive floral!), a butterfly and decorated the inside of the card.
