This is such a sweet card for a young lady! I love the beautiful Asian paper, the elegant butterflies, and especially the torn mulberry paper background. I'm sure Alex will love this!

The softness of the mulberry ( I hope you can bring it back into fashion again ;-)) is perfect with that beautiful chiyogami paper. Such a pretty card, Jean, with perfect Asian flair.

Very pretty and feminine. The papers look wonderful (I should dig out my mulberry!). The colors are perfect as well; what girl doesn't love pink and lavender?!

Butterflies are all about transformation and healing so this is perfect for a dear 12-year-old girl. I love the colors you used and the shiny thread too! ~Karen.

Beautiful! I just love those Japanese papers with the gold touches. It's been awhile since I have seen mulberry paper, but it is just perfect for this card. I love it!
