Memory Box Birthday

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


This is a CASE of a card by Joy Taylor

I stamped both sizes of the flowers from the Watching the World Bloom
stamp set from Memory Box with white craft ink and heat embossed.

Then I cut a circle from the embossed piece and a sheet of foam
cut a bit smaller than the design piece.

The solid butterfly and a circle insert were cut from vellum
and the butterfly outline was cut from Neenah.

Challenges:
AAA Birthday #14 - Use Vellum/Birthday
NBUS #15 - Never Before Used Schtuff (Butterfy)


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!


Card Recipe
Stamps:  Watching the World Bloom (MB), Handwritten Notes (PTI)
Ink:   Whisper White, Smokey Gray
Paper:   Neenah, Bashful Blue, Vellum
Other:  Drifting Side Butterfly Die (MB), Infinity Circles (HA), White EP, Sequins (SSS)

How pretty Bonnie, I love the blue withe white embossed all over flower design, and the white aperture and butterfly go beautifully and a good contrast to have the black on white sentiment banner, and lovely sequins too. x

This is such a peaceful looking card with interesting design elements all working together. Love the solid vellum for the b'fly body with the neenah cutout for the outline. You sure do know how to pull things together and add special touches to make a card sing.
