Flying Dove

Send this flying dove card to someone in need of a smile.  The Serene Garden bundle is used to create this beautiful project.  Although sending cards in the mail is rare today, everyone enjoys them a great deal.  It’s another way to connect with family and friends besides technology.  We also love the smile when they open the card because they didn’t expect it.  In addition to daily phone calls, cards speak another language.
