This gorgeous butterfly cameo has been a treasured and hoarded thing in my home. It was a gift from Sylvia (Sillyfilly) and I knew someday, the right card challenge would come along, so today I am joining the CAS white-on-white layers to allow the simplicity of this gem to shine.
This is a card for my favorite Aunt, who is also a treasure in my life. She loves butterflies! (thank you so much Sylvia!) I added cuttlebug layers, Spellbinders and a bit of Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish.
Be back to comment on this gallery after work! Have a beautiful day! Thanks for looking!
