Blue

Hello everyone! I usually only participate in one challenge at a time, but with this card I'm able to do three! Wow! Anyway, here is my card.


The sentiment and the Butterfly are from Verve. I paper pieced the butterfly using a piece of designer paper from my stash. I did heat emboss it so that it would shine a bit.

The embossing folder is one that I just picked up from Hobby Lobby called quadrefoil made by The Paper Studio. Blueberry cardstock is from PTI and the gingham paper is from A*Muse.

The butterfly and the oval are popped up using foam tape to give it a bit of dimension.

The challenges that this card is for are:

    So pretty - I am so sad that AMuse discontinued their gingham papers - this was perfect for this card.
