Slide and Lock Card

 Morning and I have made a card for the Slide and Lock challenge at Butterfly Spot,thought it looked a bit complicated at first but quite surprised how easy it was.Both sides of card slip into the topper which acts as a lock.

The P.papers are old ones from K&C had them for yonks,the butterfly and borders on the lock were fussy cut from papers in stash.The stamped sentiment inside was a craft mag freebie from I think InigoBlu.

I used stitched square dies inside were  a craft mag freebie from I think TL and I faux stitched round the borders on the front of the card.

Welcome to my new follower DEBBIE.
