MWT - Any Occasion cards

Today's challenge for the Midweek Throwdown on the Stars & Stamps blog is to make a card for our deployed heroes to send home to family and friends with an all occasion theme.  General cards that aren't for a special occasion are easier for them to use.
I made this card using the embossed flower technique from the previous post.  I stamped the flourishes and sentiments on the green cardstock, then glued the flowers and butterfly onto the cardstock before embossing.  Some of these flowers are silk flowers that have been removed from the stems and others are punched.  I added the adhesive backed half pearls after they were embossed.
