This was done for Michelle's challenge using a sentiment and butterfly that were heat embossed a long time ago. ( the butterfly was done melted pearls style for one of the DTGD things or HYCCT things last year?) ( I always make "extra's" when I heat emboss because, I despise cleaning up the mess) (although that has gotten better now that I use cheap coffee filters to catch the powder) anyways, This was maybe a 20 minute card because, I had cut this paper up thinking I was maybe going to use it on a different project and it was laying on the table being neglected so, I decided this butterflies colors worked close enough with it. Thanks for this challenge Michelle and tfl.

So many things that I love about this. The paper, the butterfly, the color combination is so pretty and the ribbon is gorgeous! Thanks for playing my challenge

What a lovely vintage creation, Stacy - I love the light airy feel to it. The background paper is just beautiful.
I use old telephone directories for my embossing - pull a page out and throw it away afterwards, so I think we are running along the same tracks.

Stacy,
Love the bg dp it is so warming! Love the tip about the coffee filters, I usually use printer paper!! I finally ordered a small tray so I stopped making such a mess! I am with you though on doing several once I start!
This one is so very pretty and matches the bg paper beautifully!!
