I know that we all have someone that has come into our lives when we least expected it. That someone for me is my girlfriend Angie. I met her in New Orleans 3 years ago. We were both celebrating our birthdays. Since then we have met up every year and have also vacationed together in Mexico and my husband and I spent a week at her home in Louisiana. I made this card for her. I hope it inspires you to create and send out a card letting that someone special in your life know that you are thinking about them.
This card was created using a "MISS YOU" stamp from My Stamp Box . I first embossed a piece of cardstock using a Cuttlebug embossing folder and then cut out the center with an oval die cutter. I then used a Fluer de lis stamp that I have and stamped it on a piece of Graphic 45 paper. I hand cut it out and then using my Helmar USA V2 Vellum Adhesive spray I sprayed the back of the Fluer de lis and put it down on the cut out portion of the cardstock that I embossed. By using the Helmar USA V2 Vellum Adhesive spray I was able to insure that it had adhesive over the entire back and that there would be no loose sections. I then took that oval section and using Helmar USA ZAPDOTS I popped it up onto the card and completed my design. My Prima flowers were added using Helmar USA 450 Quick Dry Adhesive to insure, once dry that they would not come off.
I hope you find inspiration from my card, now it's off to the mail box to send it on down to my Cajun friend.
Hugs, Cathy La Hay
