The background behind the butterfly was done by sprinkling Brusho crystals
on and embossing folder, cranking through the Big Shot,
then spritzing with water.
If you look close you can see the embossed feathers.
This die belongs to a friend and I'm so lucky that she let me borrow it!
It die cuts the window and butterfly and embosses the chevron design
at the bottom, leaving the space for a sentiment.
It's perfect for quick and easy cards!
I'm going to share this at

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
