This is going to be short and sweet as I am in the hospital. I was admitted on Wednesday because they found blood clots in my lungs. I was going to have this up yesterday, but was in too much pain to do much. Hopefully, I will be released today and things will get back to regularly scheduled programming.
This card is made using, you guessed it, the Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge. I thought it would be cute to put an overlay over patterned paper. To make this appealing, I recommend only using a pattern that is small and not too overwhelming.
The flowers are from a stamp set that I listed below in the supplies used section.
