This card is for the 2 Red Bananas challenge for this week - to use stripes. You can find the challenge here: http://2redbananas.blogspot.com/2009...g-stripes.html. For some reason, I was in the mood to do a flap card The card measures about five inches by four inches.
I cut the curved portion of the top with Long Oval Nestabilities - scalloped and plain. The paper is from from a Die Cuts With a View matstack. I finally bought a Martha Stewart butterfly punch, so of course I had to use it. The black and white circles are Nestabilities, the flower is a punch, the flower center is a stamp which I stamped on scrap paper and cut out. I used Basic Gray magnets to hold the card shut, and I added a little ribbon towards the bottom. I also added a couple pearls to each butterfly.
