I heat embossed the wreath in silver. I added a cream panel, a punched border, some washi tape and stamping to the card.
The birds and banner are heat embossed in clear and popped-up with foam tape. The cake was heat embossed in silver.

Cardabilities Design Team Reveal #121: Butterfly Mother's Day Card

(I have 2 posts today...if you're looking for my DT project for Decorate to Celebrate, please click HERE)

Hello, crafty friends!

It's the 15th...and you know it! It's Cardabilities Design Team Reveal Day!

Here's the gorgeous sketch by Karan:

And here's my card:

I simply layered 2 patterned papers for the base. I cut out some leaves (Spellbinders), using solid green and patterned paper, and layered them with some flowers. I added 3 pearls to the blue flower's center.

I cut a butterfly (Artiste Cricut Collection- CTMH), both shape (patterned paper) and the scroll (white cardstock). I inked the scroll butterfly, added glitter to the wings, adhered (by the body only) on the shape cut, and adhered on the card.

Then, I stamped sentiment on Colonial White cardstock, cut the banner, inked the edges and adhered on butterfly with foam tape. Finally, I added more pearls to the top right side of card.

Challenges:

1. Word Art Wed #179: AG Family Friendly Challenge

2. Simon Says Stamp Mon: In the Middle (butterfly and sentiment in the middle)
