My card today is for my sister-in-law who absolutely loves dragonflies! When we went out on the boat a few weekends ago she had a beautiful red coat on, so hence the red theme for the card. The papers are from BoBunny – Serenity – I absolutely love love the BoBunny ranges!
 

 The tag pulls out to be able to write a message on it…
 
 
 …There is also a little envelope on the back for somewhere to hide her present…
 
 
…and finally an envelobox to put the card in for hand-delivery!
