Hello friends! I'm back with another card that was passed up for publication a while back. Actually, I suppose it was meant to be, because I wound up sending this to a good friend of ours who just lost his father.
This beautiful blue butterfly is from the Lost Coast Designs set, Butterflies.
I used a Labels Eighteen die to cut an opening in the stamped-script panel (Hero Arts Manuscript Background). On the opposite side of the die cut, I stamped the sentiment and set it aside. After popping up the script panel, I laid the sentiment piece inside and secured to the card base.
I'm so glad you dropped by today!
