When lacking mojo I find it helpful to use sketches and rummage through my stash. I came by this old DP and thought of this week's sketch over at Paper PLayers. The butterfly border was prepared long ago, I had heat embossed with a lace stamp on vellum and used a TH die to cut it out from the vellum and white backing paper. I heat embossed the sentiment, chosen for it's size mainly. Silver liquid pearls were added. I chose the mini slimline size, I find this card best for cards that are likely to get posted, to keep within weight limits.
This card is for:
The Paper Players - #584 Sketch
Allsorts - #669 In The Garden (butterflies
Moving along with the Times - #140 Friends

Wow, it's a so striking slimline! Love how you realized the lace butterflies on vellum and the pearls addition, and the vibrant pink pops so well from the background! You choose the perfect sentiment, too! Well done!
Hugs, love and peace on your way!
Gorbeous card and butterflies pia...loz
Beautiful Pia, love the butterfly border and very pretty pink, lovely background and the tiny sparkles on their bodies..When I make my A5 [big cards] they post the same as our slimlines as they fit through the card board sleeve that the post shop measures with, so that is lucky..

I love the way you alternated the stripes on your background and those pretty butterflies have an almost textured appearance with that pretty pattern. A great slimline design! Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
