Just a quick post of a card I made for my dear friend's birthday:
I created a background by heat embossing faded text stamp with white embossing powder. Then I applied Dusty Concord DI, heavily to the edges and lightly to the centers of the papers.
I used Tim Holtz butterfly stamp and die to cut out 3 butterflies and layer them for extra dimension...
I kept the card simple and only added a little bit of Baby's Breath and white ribbon...wanted to keep a focus on the text background and butterfly.
I would like to enter this card into following challenges:

ReplyDeleteSamra, this is just too beautiful for words. Firstly I adore the softness of the colour palette. The embossing gives the whole project an ethereal quality and the exquisite butterfly adds luxurious dimension. An absolutely gorgeous make.
