I did this card for WT121 - using a stylus, which means using a brass template! I haven't even touched these since the Cuttlebug came out! Now I remember why - they take a danged long time! I walked away and restarted this card about 5 times. This is it! I mean it! No more messing . . .

Ooohh Ahhh! Love this card! The colors work pretty together! I don't have a cuttlebug, I use a Fiskars texture template, and you're right...it takes a while, but with a little elbow-grease, it looks just as good! TFS!

Sorry - I did edit it, but the changes haven't come up yet. It is a Lasting Impressions brass template - it has a butterfly, a bee and a ladybug. It doesn't have a name, but the number on the plate is L9102.

I like your color palatte. It's perfect for butterflies and l. bugs. Even tho cuttlebugs are wonderful, the stylus technique is so classy. You've captured it perfectly. TFS

Fabulous card in all ways...understand what you mean about using the CB though...sooo much quicker! But you did such a great job, the old fashioned way!
