Card is on yellow cardstock and turquoise cardstock from Stampin' Up. Used white from Walmart. The foil piece** is made with running a white piece of cardstock through the Xyron and putting that adhesive side down on the backside of the foil. Trim to size of the white cardstock. Then I put this in a Cuttlebug folder--got this with a load of Stampin' Up stamps and supplies from Craig's List. I then trimmed the foil piece to the size I wanted and set it aside. The floral white piece is made with a flowers stamp from Stampendous and I used VersaMark ink and stamped it all over the paper. Used chalks to color them in. Then used a single stamp from the SU Hostess Stamp set "Fall Flair" to fill in around the flowers. The "Happy Spring" stamp is from one lot of stamps from Ebay and no manufacturer name is on it---used SU Bermuda Bay ink for that and sponged the edges. Used the tag die from Spellbinders Ribbon Tag Trio for that. Ribbon is from the stash. Butterflies are made with the Martha Stewart multi stamp. Used pearls on those from Hobby Lobby. ***When working with foil always work with a larger piece than you need and be sure to handle it carefully so it does not tear.
