Hello everyone and Happy New Year!
I started with White cs and repeatedly stamped the new Butterfly accent in Sahara Sand.I stamped the flowers from Vintage Vogue twice in black across the panel. Layered it on black cs and the onto a Sahara Sand base. i then added these fabulous sizzex corners from Anne Ryan~Thanks Anne, I LOVE them big time!!
for the main image I stamped the Butterfly with sahara sand then kissed it with the flowers from Vintage Vogue. i did this twice and popped the second one up, wrapped some black 1/4" grosgrain for the body and added a pearl. This started out as a sympathy card as we lost our sweet uncle Doug over christmas, however it evolved into a non sympathy card. I am really happy with this one as it has an elegant feel to it. thanks again Anne, I will get lots and lots of use out of the corner die!!
thanks for looking!
