Welcome
I would like to welcome my latest follower Nastya Deutsch,
who has a blog on beauty, fashion and lifestyle.
This card was made for an elderly Aunt.
I love how it came together and am very happy with the result
The butterfly is a die cut that has sat on my desk for a very long time, and I sponged it with DOX Peacock Feathers and Picked Raspberry
I added it to some gauze, and then to the pretty paper - it looks like draped silk
The greeting was stamped and gold embossed and them mounted on the layers of card that I have used to mount the main panel on. A few rhinestones and I called it finished.
The inside was finished with some washi tape down one side.

So beautiful, Maxine. I love the delicate look with the gauze behind your gorgeous butterfly. Beautiful combination of colours. I bet your aunt loved this card! xx
Very pretty card, thanks for joining us at the Crafter's Cafe this fortnight.
Oooo...this is so soft and pretty, Maxine. I love the butterfly, the pastel tones, and that lovely cheesecloth touch. I have always loved this technique whenever I've seen it (with the cascading cheesecloth). I recently tried it with some walnut ink, and there really is an "art" to shredding, pulling, and making it look just right. I've had several fails in this area (and many other areas to be honest). Again, with my comfort zone thing....LOL.
Such a sweet card.
Blessings,
karen
