Butterfly birthday

This card is for the sketch for Flutter by Wednesday 248:

Papers are some old Papermania ones (all offcuts of pieces previously used). The butterfly is an Anna Griffin stamp inked with versamark and heat embossed with silver detail embossing powder. I then cut into a frame that came with the Papermania papers and inserted the butterfly. The banner piece down the middle is a scrap left over from a silver mirror embossed piece made with a folder with my eBosser.

Vintage gold

A golden Christmas card with a vintage picture. The picture is another I found in my stash - no idea where it came from. The panel on the left is vellum, run through my xyron - the script is embossed although you can't see that here. The strips of golden gems were from That Craft Place and the panel on the right is a piece of flocked Anna Griffin paper left over from a kit from a couple of years ago.
