Well, it's Independence Day here in the USA! I hope all my fellow Americans are enjoying the holiday. And Happy Anniversary, Vicki and Gary!
To make this card, I stamped the outer design in Brocade Blue, then stamped the inner design in Old Olive. I also stamped the inner design on scrap paper in blue and cut out the butterfly. Since the butterfly was behind the leaf on the stamp, I cut around the leaf with a craft knife and put the butterfly behind it. The butterflies in the corners are from the same set, as is the sentiment. The main image panel is mounted on Old Olive cardstock. I added pearls to the butterflies and the sentiment. The stamps are all from Papertrey Ink's Round & Round. EDITED TO ADD: Round & Round was PTI's Anniversary set, which could only be obtained by purchasing 12 sets from them throughout the year. Or, be lucky enough to have a good friend who received two and shared! :) )
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
Happy Independence Day from one of your admirers in France!

ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day, Lynette, from a fan in the UK! Hope you're having a lovely day with lots of fun things to do.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your nice post on my blog about the all-in-one box. It's such a clever bit of cutting and folding, isn't it! Glad to know someone else does plain white mock-ups, too!
