Birthday butterflies & flowers

My Mam's birthday card using Petite Petals, butterflies and a touch of sparkle!
Colours are Perfect Plum and a bit of Rose Red.
 The frame was created using the square framelits and glimmer paper. The inside is Natural Ivory card cut using the square framelit  and stamped using the Hardwood stamp in Crumb Cake. Gorgeous Grunge was used to add a splash of colour with Perfect Plum.
Petite flowers were stamped in Perfect Plum, stamping a few times without re-inking to create different shades.
Butterflies punched and inked in Rose red and Plum on the edges.


 I used the Artisan Label punch to create a window in the background. Stamping the greeting on white card and then raised on 3d foam pads, just adds depth and interest. I then tucked a little banner punch underneath.


Raising some of the flowers with foam pads created more depth along with stickles and liquid pearls in the centre of the flowers.


Matching stamped envelope to finish.

Hope this gives you some ideas and inspiration :)
