Art With Heart Sale-a-bration Blog Hop
Hi there
For the centre embellishment I have used one of the outline butterflies from the Butterfly Elements pack. I've stamped a butterfly from Butterfly Gala stamp set in Gorgeous Grape ink, coloured it with Highland Heather Stampin' Blends and added some Dazzling Diamonds glitter. It was cropped with the Butterfly Duet Punch and placed into the wooden butterfly frame and adhered it over the Highland Heather ribbon that is from the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack. I have used a cake decorating stamen for the butterfly antennae and then the smaller butterfly in Gorgeous Grape was popped up over the top and finished with some 2mm rhinestones. The greeting is from the Part of My Story stamp set, which is also one of the Sale-a-bration products that you can choose. It is very sparkly in real life!

For the inside, I have kept the same layout, using one of the Rectangle Stitched Framelits double cut into a square for the writing panel. I added a small butterfly in the corner to finish.
Here is a view from the top.

That is just stunning. I love the wooden layer. So pretty with the lavender.
Beautiful card Judy, I love how you’ve used the wooden element
Judy your cards are always so elegant and just perfect…you are really inspiring. I love your purple butterfly cards.
A beautiful card Judy. I really love the idea of the stitched square inside the card for the writing panel! Simply gorgeous!
Beautiful card Judy! Your attention to detail with the stamens is amazing!
I was wondering what to do with the outline of those butterflies and now you have solved that problem! Thanks for taking part in the SAB blog hop.
What a beautiful card, Judy, and I had no idea that those wooden embellishments could be used to frame those butterflies, wow! Thanks for sharing.
You are so good at using those wooden elements! I go totally blank when I try to use them. Stunning card, Judy. The purples look fantastic with the crisp white.
