White Butterfly and Heart.

Just had time to make a card for this week's Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge! I chose the gorgeous butterfly from the Nordic Spring stamp set. I stamped it on vellum with white embossing powder. I adhered it on the heart which comes from the Seasons of Love-Tags stamp set. I made a felt scalloped heart with a Spellbinders die. Then I embossed on vellum again some flourishes which come from the Flourishes - Scalloped and Dots stamp set. I put three white pearls on them. I stitched the edges and also added a ribbon and some jute twine. The sentiment is from the Half Pint Heroes stamp set. To finish off the card, I put a cute wooden heart with twine on the butterfly.

I will also enter this card to the Blog Party of this month! The theme for August is Birthdays!







Here's the great sketch made by Laurie Schmidlin:

  15. Oh Anne-Elise...truly beautiful. Butterflies are such great focal points for so many different types of card but looks especially incredible on this lovely birthday card. The vellum is a perfect medium for a butterfly that looks lighter than air. Awesome job.
