I have not been able to make cards much lately or upload, but here is one I was able to complete after several attempts.
I know it looks rather simple, but getting all the colors, spacing and layers right was quite difficult. I had to do things over and over again, but this is the result.
I had in my "OLD, OLD" stash some adhesive mesh that I just placed onto the cardstock panel in the center of the card behind the butterfly framing. I haven't used that in years since my old scrapbooking days. It just happened to match in color and I needed a little "something" added.
The rest is self-explanatory for the most part. I created this card with the dsp being the main part I started with as I liked the paper. I thought the rest would be a piece of cake. Guess not...
Thanks for taking a look! Have a great weekend!

Pam, this is such a beauty. I LOVE that MS flower and the pretty butterfly. Great idea to use the wonderful mesh. I have so much from my scrapbooking days..just need to get rid of a lot of it. Have a good weekend.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
