Just a little something for a swap

I am participating in a swap this month where the theme was Monochromatic (plus neutral) and bling.  It ended up being a really good Get To Know Your Cartridge kind of exercise.  I used Florals Embellished and relied heavily upon my Creative Features keys.  I love this cartridge, but let's face it - the images are extremely detailed and to make a large quantity of these cards would have taken forever had I done all the layering and piecing.  So I decided to use the "shift" key with the Phrase feature to create a simplified butterfly, and then matted using the Silhouette Blackout and Shadow keys.  Here is what I made:






















Stamp:  My Pink Stamper Spectacular Sayings
Cricut CartridgeFlorals Embellished
Edge Punch:  Martha Stewart
Paper:  AC Cardstock, Colorbok Rose Stripe
Embellishments:  white organdy ribbon (3/8"), white pearl (Recollections), Stickles
