I went with Flowers/Pearls and Butterflies to make a birthday card for a neighbour who loves Butterflies.
This is another card that practically made itself-I was looking through my stash for butterfly papers and actually matted and layered some on a card -then couldn't find an image that went with-so back to drawer of papers and lurking halfway down I found these flowers already cut out from goodness knows were and how they survived intact I have no idea-anyways no good to put onto a P,paper so just glued them down onto black cardstock added three foiled butterflies and some pearls from stash,heat embossed a stamped sentiment ---done!!!
