I used my limited edition Distress ink pads and stamped them straight onto the linen cardstock. I stamped a Hero Arts script stamp over the top in versafine ink, and added a diecut butterfly with green pearls at its centre.
Hubby has been working all weekend - I am definitely an Olympics widow - seen him for about 3 hours in the last week ... so I am taking the girls to see the Lorax this afternoon before we pick him up from the station.
