If I had a flower....

I had a fab time at Ally Pally last weekend and brought home lots of pretty papers to use with the latest Spellbinders range and Creative Expressions embellishments.

I used the Clarity Stamps "If I had a flower" stamp for the sentiment:

To mat and layer I used several of the Spellbinders dies -
Labels 22

Butterfly Circles

and Grand Circles

To get the flourishes, I used the Bird Flourishes die:

on some lime green card. I cut off the tails (very cruel I know!) and glued them onto pink card and cut out to make them stand out from the patterned background paper.

To decorate the card, I used the 

pink sheer wrinkled edge ribbon

and cream three bead hat pins

I finished the card off with some of the exclusive Crimson Cloud handmade paper roses:

and pink pearls

When I used the Butterfly Circles die, I had a handful of butterflies left over, so I dotted these around the card to give extra dimension.

Hope you like the card!
