Make This Simple Color of Spring Card!

Here's a color of spring card that is easy to make and a delight to receive. The phrase used on this card is:

Flowers and butterflies drift in color illuminating spring.

For this card I used Microsoft Word to generate the phrase mentioned above.

If you like, you may highlight the text above and copy and paste into Microsoft Word. Place it wherever you like, change the font, and color, etc.

I have also included a pdf file that you can download and print.


Note: You can print texts for your homemade cards using funky or decorative fonts from Font Garden.
