Welcome
It's good to be back - (real) life got busy last week, but it is good to be back here now.
This card is for my last surviving Aunt, who turns 88 this week. She loves her garden, so it is always a pleasure to make her a floral type of card
I used another piece of this gorgeous pearlised floral paper, I love the sheen on it, and at the right angle the sheen turns gold, as in the top right hand corner in this photo.
The trellis was cut from gold card, and then trimmed it in half before attaching it.
The sentiment banner is hand cut, embossed in gold and sponged with
Tea Dye DI with a few clear rhinestones to glam it up.
The butterflies were cut from scraps/snippets of white card and sponged and given several coats of WoS, then layered over a solid die cut from pink metallic paper.

Oh be still my heart, I have missed so many of your gorgeous creations. This one is breathtaking! THe floral paper reminds me of the English countryside and offers such a feminine beauty (Jane Austen fan here!) AND paired with your signature embossing - swoon! The butterflies are just as lovely as can be. Blessings~!
