One of my dear stampinÂ’ friends has a birthday this week and these are the hardest cards to make. First, you want it to be special for a special friend; then, it must be outstanding because that friend is also a stamper! And finally, you know she will display the card- so there is even more pressure. This stand up card was just perfect along with my very best and favorite Designer Paper from StampinÂ’ Up and a little silver bling. I used white shimmery metallic paper and clear embossed the image and the punched butterflies. I love how it turned out and the back is as pretty as the front, donÂ’t you think?
