Hail to Queen MariLynn, our new Queen this week, and if you haven't checked out her gallery, you're in for a wonderful surprise. Lots and lots of butterflies among many other lovely cards.
After a lot of fluttering around, I finally landed on Bandana Butterflies. I used black cardstock, ran it through my Perfect Perennials folder, went over the embossed parts with a 2-way glue pen and sprinkled on dazzling diamonds. Punched 3 butterflies out of blue vellum and glued them down. Covered up the boo-boo glue marks with rhinestones. Added some black ribbon, but I'm not sure if I like it... what do you think?
Congratulations MariLynn! Enjoy your reign!

A lovely tribute to a lady who I hear especially loves butterflies. I can surely agree with her on that!! Your card is great, love how you applied the glitter to the embossing folder!! Love the vellum butterflies!! Great job!!

despite the fact, Mrs Broom, that you felt the need to correct me last night, I'm still a fan of yours, quirky or not. I think your card is all about drama. BTW, are you a drama queen? Do you like stirring things up? While I await your answers, let me tell you this is drop dead gorgeous. What a statement it makes. Wow!
