QUICKUTZ BUTTERFLY

I've seen several cards recently where the paper or flower was attached to the front of a card and then the entire front embossed with an embossing folder.  The light blue paper with the flower is a piece from a KaiserCraft 6" Paper Pad - "Tea at Elsie's Collection".  It doesn't show real well in the picture, but there is kind of a Lacy-look border around the dp.  The butterfly was cut with a Quickutz die using paper from the same paper pad.

While we are updating our living room and other area of our home, I may be a little sporadic about leaving posts.  Right now everything is in disarray around here.  I'll get here as often as I can.  Don't think I've disappeared.  I will be back!

Thank you for stopping by!

I love this card! Very thoughtful of you to keep us in your thoughts in the middle of your disarray!!

Aren't these birds cute?  I've had the stamp set for a while and just hadn't inked it up.  The littlest bird was cut out and pop...
