Lacy Butterfly

I was inspired by the softness, the scallops, and the tiny pink flowers at the ODB inspiration challenge.  I used a bit of DP from a mega grab bag, and "divided" it with a border using a Martha Stewart border punch.  The sentiment is from ODB's Happy Birthday set and the butterfly is Cheery Lynn.  I backed the We R Memory Keepers washi tape with light color cs - the tape is from a large set I got from Costco a while ago.  It will last me forever, but it was a good deal and gives me a better selection.  I should have added some bling to the butterfly - I can still do that.  I will use this for my Visitation team ministry at church.  If you have ideas of a simple way to keep track of what card (including inside verse) is sent to whom, I would appreciate hearing from you.
