Sorry I have been MIA lately. I have a new little grand-daughter that had to arrive in this world earlier than planned. She weighed 2lb. 4 oz.. I spent some time in hospital with the momma before she was sent to a larger city. I had my 5 wk old granddaughter over night so her dad and mom could go be with them. Various other things going on, too. Seems like everything happens at once. I am trying to get caught up and I will visit everyone's blog soon.
The challenge for Classy Cards N Such is to use an embossing folder to add texture to our cards. This card went down a different path than I had planned, but that was a good thing as I do like this card. I used the Anna Griffin Matelasse embossing. The butterfly was made using a die by Memory Box called Willoughby Butterfly Wings. I added rhinestones to the butterly and the border. All of the mentioned products may be found at Classy Cards N Such store. You may use the code Shirley-10 for a discount.
Thanks, for coming by today.
