As this year is winding down,
I have two friends whose birthdays fall in November.
At this point, I've run out of older paper collections
that coordinate with their favorite colors & that I like,
so, Fran's card is made with a newly purchased collection!
These papers are gorgeous!
Fran's card is way at the top of favorites for me.
Some of Fran's favorite colors are lavender & green together.
Purples & greens always look fabulous together!
As with all of the other birthday cards this year, I've layered strips
on Fran's 5" x 7" card that are either straight cut or edge punched.
Here are the top strips.
These are the bottom strips.
I was so excited to find a glitter set of enamel dots that had
three beautifully coordinating colors for this card! W O W!
Some special words, just for Fran, are printed
and then oval die cut & adhered flat to the card.
In the center & adhered with foam adhesive circles for dimension
is the daintiest, prettiest, eye-catching ReneaBouquets butterfly!!
What a total beauty!!
Finally, the inside of the card is decorated with a variety of laser cuts;
all are noted in the products used below.
The butterflies are the same as the one used on the front of the card!
These are ReneaBouquets butterfly kisses that are very detailed;
are tiny & come in various sizes;
are printed on one side so they're flat and
also they don't have any sparkles on them.
They are truly worth using!
Thanks for your visit and for viewing Fran's card.
Wishing her a wonderful birthday filled with blessings!
Have a blessed day,
Lisa >^..^<
