This card was made for our very own Ellen. She is battling breast cancer right now. I hope this lifts her spirits!
I am editing to add the details of the how I did it! I took my dp and stamped the Unity butterfly. The black butterfly is part of the dp next, I ran the dp through the cuttlebug with The heathers lace embossing folder. And then I added inks gold in gold to the raised areas with my finger dipped in the gold. Really a favorite thing of mine to do!

What a stunning card! So artistically created. Love how you did that background with your finger! Amazing! And, yes, it is funny how both our cards were gold and pink with butterflies posted within minutes of each other.

Oh my goodness Pam, this is stunning. I read your description, scrolled back, reread it, scrolled back and now I'm standing here in awe of this gorgeous creation and how it came to be. Ellen will treasure this for sure. Thanks so very much.
