If you’re looking for an easy but elegant card to make, perhaps a card for Mother’s Day, this is a good one. I used Regal Rose card stock, which is being discontinued with the Stampin’ Up! Color Refresh. It’s a pretty color, but I didn’t really use it a lot. I embossed just a strip of Whisper White with the Stripes Embossing Folder, wrapped a bit of 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon around it, and glued it down to the Whisper White layer. The butterflies were made with the Elegant Butterfly Punch, one butterfly punched out of Regal Rose card stock and one out of Vellum Card Stock which was them embossed with the Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder and decorated with the few Basic Pearls.
I love cards like this that you can use for many occasions.This could be for Mother’s Day, a birthday, a wedding, a “thinking of you”, even graduation.
