A little while back I was going through a tough time and I felt that I wanted to talk with Margo about the situation. Over the course of a few weeks we went back and forth and she really helped me get clarity on the situation without being judgmental. To me she is like a wise old granny that you can turn to for wisdom.

I wanted to send Margo a special card and so I went to Flickr and browsed around for a picture in the Creative Commons section. Although the rules are that you can use these images without attribution I always like to get the permission from the person who took the photo beforehand. I feel it just good manners.

I found this stunning  lotus flower image and contacted the owner Beverly, she was happy for me to create a card with it. Beverly has lots of other outstanding images on her Flickr Photostream if you are interested.

There are lot’s of shutterbugs that put their work on Flickr and if you ask them nicely, chances are they’ll be happy to share their work with you.

Thanks Beverly… Awesome!
