TLC489 - Birthday wishes from the butterflies!

Photo Details

Poster: Breila_Cards

I haven't got an embossing maching, so instead I dug out one of the ready embossed cards that's just been sat in my drawers because I didn't have any ideas for using them! I picked a few colours, and used gold pen for the butterfly effects and random dots. I wanted to keep the centre nice and simple, and used the gem flowers to disguise the inked line from the stamp.

The flowers under the sentiment added just that added "punch" to make a special card.
