A card today using another one of my new embossing folders.
The 3D embossing folder is Lisa Horton's 'Padded Quilt' and I love the deep texture of the design. The patterned paper is from an old Dovecraft paper pad. The butterfly is made from Memory Box 'Pippi' and 'Isabella' die cuts and layered on Memory Box 'Stitched Circle Layers' die cuts. The flower was made with punches and raised up on a foam pad. I used a Creative Expressions 'Windswept Grasses' die for the leaves. I might add a sentiment in the top right hand corner, I'll decide when I know who is going to receive the card, although I think it looks okay as it is.
I am joining in the following challenges:
What a super EF, a really great design and great colours for the background and image. Lovely card.
