This is a Happy Belated birthday card for our very own DD Nancy! (stiz2003)
The base is SU Crumb Cake and I also cut one layer of the butterfly and the flourishes from CC as well. I cut the two layers of Spellbinder die at die club and don't have the name. Both layers are popped with dimensional tape. I didn't have any pearls to match so I made my paper ones, punching circles (from CC)and forming with a stulus on a pad. The trick is getting them glued down because they are hollow! The background and top layer of the butterfly (and inside) is all cut from paper I downloaded. I must admit I struggled with this and it sat on my desk for a few days while I tried to figure out its design...plus it was just to darn hot and humid to think creatively (more whining I know...) It is loosely inspired by something I saw on Pinterest. I wanted to make something special for Nancy and as the days passed it got more belated and more belated so I finally decided to finish this (instead of starting over completely) and get it sent off. She let me know she received it today so I am posting it!
Thank you for stopping by to take a look. It is always appreciated!

Nancy had to be over the moon when she received this GORGEOUS card from you, Peggy! It is so YOU with the elegant design, die cuts and subtle color palette. Truly exquisite!
