I definitely wanted to honour our queen for this week. Such a lovely person with so many nice things to say and a neat variety of cards. So she is NOT just a brat...lol...Terri.. I was in a butterfly and flower mood so had narrowed it down to 3 case butterflies ones. 2 on the first page and then this one won out...:0)...Pink Friend CC222 by Brat Cards at Splitcoaststampers
Didnt quite work out as I wanted as kept making mistakes...lol. I chose this one becasue I had a little pack of embossing edgers I hardly have used yet. thie first time one corner didnt come right and missed it up and then the second time I thought i would try and sponge the flwoers lightly on it and it smeared....lol...So...lo...as you can see now the front edge of the card is shorter......yep had to cut that one off so tried to just emboss the back part...Yah it worked.
I had a perfect little butterfly for up top , but could not find a little squigly that would work right underneath it so cheated and put one of my 3dish stickers on. Then just added the sentiment...Congrats terri....and thanks for visiting...:0)

I really like the shorter cover. This is a very pretty card.
I have to laugh because I often arrive at a card through trial, error, fixing mistakes, and frustration! Did I mention frustration!?! Well, I still call it therapy!
My senti was a rub on and the butterfly stamped. How ironic yours turned out to be opposite with the stamped senti. Maybe those cards plan themselves!
