What a great sketch, Roxie! Thank you so much for providing us with such inspiration all year, and I wish you and all of our SCS family a very Happy New Year!!
I adapted the sketch to fit vertically instead horizontally... I hope that's OK... I used Pocket Silhouettes and the Posy background to create my card today. The main panel was stamped in black and More Mustard inks. I sponged the edges of this panel and the Posy panel. The Martha Stewart butterfly is lightly sponged on the edges and lined with tiny half-back pearls in the center with it's wings lifted for dimension. Once again, I used sheer ribbon (my fave!), and larger half-back pearls mounted on (I think) EK Success flower daisy punch (this was one of my first punches purchased 10+ years ago, and the little label wore off long ago). Anyhow, three of the flower petals were trimmed off on all flowers, and then glued down onto the card.
Thank you for checking out my card details, and have a very blessed and happy New Year!
