My card layout today is Freshly Made Sketches #49. I used the New Beginnings stamp set by Sweet n Sassy Stamps for the sentiment and also used the coordinating New Beginning Butterfly Die Set to cut out my butterfly shapes. I embossed the white background with the Polka Dots embossing folder and embossed the black strip with the Seeing Spots embossing folder. I stitched around the edges. I cut out the butterflies with Echo Park Victoria Gardens paper. I added a rhinestone to each one to finish my card off. It's kinda clean and simple, but I really like how this card turned out!

Here is an up-close shot of my butterflies.

Challenges I Used:

Poodles Parlour - winged things

Cute Card Thursday #231 - bling it up

Lili's Little Fairies Challenge - spots or stripes

Crafting for All Seasons #34 - stitching

Paper Play Challenges #34 - sentiment as main image
