I have been combining challenges lately...and this card is no exception...it is for the 'Ways to Use It'...using Kraft CS on our card, Flourishes TImeless Tuesday Challenge - using beads, The Devine Designs - with a Scripture and the final (and my newest find) the 'Flutter by Wednesday' Challenge that I found on Glowbug's Blog.....so 4 challenges...and I am happy!
The gorgeous butterfly was sent o me by the one and only Peggy (aka Marilyn Prestonn) in a RAK that took 4 months to get here, but it well worth every day of waiting - we were spoilt! I have sponged around the Nestie oval (thanks Melinda80) and added a textured, sponged Kraft strip behind it and layered it with crotched lace. I added various flowers and used half beads in the centre of them, slong with some sponged punched branches (thanks to Lesley aka Marleygo)....some more half gems were added to the corner and...the card is finished! I must mention too that the scripture is computer generated!

So pretty! Love your 'antique' look with the sponging over this beautiful verse. The lace is sooo 'you' sistah! I love the butterfly. So nice to have a little 'Giggles' on this card, so sweet!

Linda: You are just getting better and better all the time. I LOVE your card. Your cards have a real "feeling" about them. I love all the little details you put into them and it's neat that you include a lot of RAKS in them as it gives them even a more special meaning! Keep on stamping and uploading Linda. You're HOT!!! TFS!
