For the large butterfly I used a die that came free with a magazine and for the smaller ones I used a punch. The tree branch is made with a Memory Box die.
The stamped sentiment is made with a cling stamp from Prima. I heat embossed it using a dark purple embossing powder. The oval is a leftover from a cardboard frame.
This card is for these challenges:1) Inkspirational - #37

3) Eclectic Ellapu - Inspired by a song ("You are Loved - Don't give up" by Josh Groban)

Great colours!
This is a perfect card to showcasd that great sentiment.
WOW!!! Just beautiful! Sorry have not been around, still have a lot to do. Leaving Wednesday in the early morning. Love the music notes paper and the softness of the feel of your card. It would also be a special sympathy card (not that I want one) but the theme of the card and layout is perfect.
