Monogrammed card set

I wanted to make a little something for a friend who has been very helpful with an elderly relative of ours, so I made a set of six monogrammed cards for her using the Clare papers.  Making card sets is my absolute FAVOURITE thing to do... single cards are fine, but there's something about making a coordinating set, that simply makes my brain happy?!  I used a few buttons on my project, so I'm entering this into the Heart2Heart button up challenge:
And I made a little folder that holds 3 cards and their envelopes on each side, then it folds in half and ties with a piece of organdy ribbon.
 
Patterned papers are Clare; Cardstock is Outdoor Denim, Sunset, Blush & Colonial White; Stamp sets are Perfect Fit Frames and L Monogram; Inks are Blush, Hollyhock & Outdoor Denim; Navy Chevron striped ribbon, Orange organdy ribbon, Outdoor denim buttons, Outdoor denim bigger brad; Cricut Artiste Cartridge - all Close To My Heart; Sweet Scallop die & Pennant Border die, Verve; Mini Monarch border, My Favorite Things.
