Challenge: use glitter.
1st I used my Cuttlebug and Sizzix Checkerboard folder to emboss the front panel of the folded card base. Next I made a lacey background by laying a piece of lace on sticky paper and sprinkling with Champagne glitter, then removing the lace I sprinkled Misty Blue glitter. Finally I brayered over the entire piece to be sure the glitter stuck well. This piece became the background circle for the stamped verse as well as for the ribbon and bow. I also punched a small butterfly from it to stick on the edge of the round piece.
I used my Bow Easy to tie the bow.
