This month's theme for the blog hop was to make a birthday card, which is perfect because I have lots of cards to be sent out, so here is one that I'm showing today. I first picked out my colors, white, ocean tides, raspberry fizz and a little Basic Grey dp mixed in. The swirly flourishy vines from the With Sympathy set, fit perfectly with the sketch I had in mind, so I stamped the vine in Fresh Snow.

On a separate sheet of paper I stamped the butterflies, also from the With Sympathy set, cut them out and popped them up with dimensionals. After I popped them up and they were in place I went over the butterflies with Stickles.
